## About Catawiki

Catawiki is Europe's leading curated online marketplace for special objects, functioning as an auction platform where buyers and sellers trade rare collectibles.

Founded in 2008 in Assen, Netherlands, by René Schoenmakers and Marco Jansen, Catawiki has evolved from a collector's portal to a prominent auction site, hosting weekly online auctions and serving over 10 million users. The company is headquartered in Amsterdam and has additional locations in Lisbon and Paris, employing over 750 people from more than 60 nationalities. Catawiki's core service includes weekly auctions featuring 75,000 to 100,000 items across various categories, such as art, vintage comic books, classic cars, and collectibles. Each item is reviewed by in-house experts to ensure authenticity and quality, providing a secure and engaging experience for both buyers and sellers. The platform also offers a mobile app for convenient access to auctions, making it easier for collectors and enthusiasts to find unique items from around the world.
