RB Global to Acquire BigIron Auction Company

RB Global, Inc. has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire BigIron Auction Company, accelerating RB Global’s strategic expansion into U.S. agriculture. BigIron is an agriculture-focused online marketplace connecting buyers and sellers of agricultural equipment, land, livestock, and other farm and ranch assets.

BigIron processed roughly $885 million in gross transaction value, including about $520 million from commercial assets and vehicles and about $365 million from agriculture land and real estate transactions. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2026, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. Until closing, both companies will operate independently in the ordinary course.
