About

Helping productive machinery find its next factory.

Kretsa helps European food, beverage and packaging manufacturers sell surplus production machinery for a better price with almost no effort.

Surplus machinery usually leaves a factory the same way: someone makes a call, one dealer comes to look, and a number is agreed. It is fast, but nobody involved knows whether it was a good number.

We think the market should come to the machine instead. A single submission, a defined bidding window, verified professional buyers, and a clear comparison of what each one is offering — including collection timing and conditions, not just price.

We started with food, beverage and packaging equipment because it is where the second-hand market is deepest and the buyers are most specialised. Our geography is Europe.

How the process is structured.

Reviewed buyers

Buyer companies are reviewed before they join the network.

Private by default

Your company is not publicly advertised.

Site visits by approval only

Machines are assessed remotely. A viewing is arranged only after a buyer has made a written offer, and only where the seller agrees.

No obligation

Submitting a machine does not commit you to accepting an offer.
