AMSTERDAM, NL (November 18, 2019) – Doosan has selected RB Asset Solutions, a cloud-based SaaS solution from Ritchie Bros., and its suite of remarketing tools to support its European dealer network and strengthen its used equipment business. With the help of Ritchie Bros. and its RB Asset Solutions technology, Doosan has launched early this year, a new mobile-friendly used equipment website: usedDoosan.com, which is supported on the backend with RB Asset Solutions’ inventory management system and equipment inspection app. Additionally, Mascus is now Doosan Europe’s preferred online listing service to increase their stock visibility online.
“We are very excited to continue supporting our Doosan dealers in Europe with top-of-the-line remarketing tools and help them with their used equipment activity,” said Gilles Bendaoud, VP Sales & Marketing of Doosan. “The new inventory management system will help dealers centralize and manage their used equipment stocks on a platform accessible anywhere, anytime. We believe it will help us create a stronger community and communication between dealerships.”
