Scott Donaldson, Managing Director Harrison & Hetherington
For this year’s May Bull sales, the team are excited to announce that both sellers and committed purchasers will be able to attend the sales in-person again, in as normal a sale as the current restrictions allow.
Online bidding will also be running alongside the traditional mart ring for all other interested parties, given the success of the company’s virtual platform. One key difference this year sees the 2021 sales split over three weekends, with Limousin, Continental and Traditional themes across each.
Catalogues are now published, and the sales will take place between Friday 7th May and Saturday 22nd May.
