America's Auto Auction Enters Global Market with Acquisition of UK-Based G3 Vehicle Auctions
CARMEL, Ind., April 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- America's Auto Auction today announced its entry into the international market through the acquisition of G3 Remarketing, a leading independent vehicle auction company in the United Kingdom that operates under the name G3 Vehicle Auctions ("G3"). This acquisition establishes America Auto Auction's first footprint outside the United States and includes G3's two high-performing locations in Castleford and Bedford.
This move represents more than geographic growth. It is a strategic step into a new market with a proven partner. America's Auto Auction selected G3 for its strong reputation, rapid growth, and ability to modernize the remarketing experience through a seamless blend of digital and physical platforms.
Founded in 2009 by Matt Dale and Amanda Holtby, G3 Vehicle Auctions has spent over 15 years redefining vehicle remarketing in the UK. Known for its customer-first approach, transparent buying process, and market-leading technology, G3 has become one of the country's most trusted auction providers for vendors and dealers alike.
"Entering the UK market is a defining moment for our company, and there was only one way we wanted to do it, with a partner that is already setting the standard," said Chuck Tapp, CEO of America's Auto Auction. "G3 has built something truly differentiated in how they serve customers and evolve the auction experience. That made this the right first step internationally. We are not here to change what is working. We are here to invest in it, support it, and help take it even further."
G3's operating model features daily sales segmented by price point, giving dealers access to more curated inventory. Through its integrated marketplace, the company remarkets a wide range of vehicles, including cars of all models and conditions, vans and light commercial vehicles, motorbikes, wheelchair-access vehicles, and in ops.
The Castleford location, opened in 2021, handles approximately 50,000 vehicles annually and hosts multiple sales each week. The Bedford site further expands G3's national reach, processing approximately 30,000 vehicles annually while offering a 14-acre facility that increases accessibility for dealers and vendors across the south of the UK.
As part of the acquisition, America's Auto Auction is committed to preserving the culture, service, and processes that have driven G3's success. Customers and vendors can expect the same trusted team and experience they know today, with the auction remaining under the G3 Vehicle Auction name.
"It became apparent as soon as we engaged with America's Auto Auction that they would be excellent custodians of the company. It was critical that the values, culture and long-term vision aligned with our future ambition for G3. This deal will provide a multitude of personal development opportunities for the existing team and further bolster G3's position as the UK's go-to remarketing partner for both vendors and purchasers," said Matt Dale, Joint Founder of G3 Vehicle Auctions. "We are immensely proud of the sustained, profitable growth of G3 since its inception and are equally confident the business will continue to flourish under the stewardship of the existing senior management team and under America's Auto Auctions wider guidance."
This acquisition reinforces America's Auto Auction's commitment to delivering tailored, customer-centric auction experiences while growing alongside best-in-class partners in new markets.
Cooper Parry served as deal advisor and Gordons as legal advisor to the sellers, with Squire Patton Boggs serving as legal advisor to America's Auto Auction.
