In 1988, SAM Auctions entered the industry in its first incarnation, Lines Equipment, specializing in the service, repair, an ... d installation of supermarket equipment. Today, SAM has grown into one of the nation’s premier auction, liquidation, sales, and reverse logistics companies serving the grocery, restaurant, retail, and big box industries across North America. We have built our value proposition on our ability to quickly and effectively move, manage, and liquidate assets for companies and capital groups of all sizes. Our consulting and logistics side manages surplus asset, warehousing, and delivery logistics housing tens of thousands of square feet of commercial and industrial equipment. With national teams able to respond in any U.S. town or city, we work with facility designers, engineers, architects, and procurement to ensure all equipment is properly tracked, moved and managed. We also offer contracting and consulting services. The company’s unprecedented growth has earned it a place on the Inc. 5000 list, along with being featured in multiple publications as a “Company to Watch.” Perhaps most impressively, the management and staff at SAM have held true to their central precept: Good is the enemy of great. SAM has established itself as a “great” in its field by valuing people, operating with integrity, and giving each client a tailor-made experience, respecting their vision, and working tirelessly to help them meet their goals.
