Today, Exapro announces the completion of a Management Buy-Out (MBO) at the end of 2025, marking a new chapter in the company's 25-year history serving professionals in the used industrial machinery market.

With a market size in the tens of billions of US dollars, the used industrial machinery market plays a critical role by extending machine lifecycles and improving access to equipment for industrial companies of all sizes.

Yet, buying and selling used industrial machines can be challenging. Buyers often struggle to assess machine condition, while sellers find it difficult to set the right price. They also spend time managing leads and waiting for deals to close. When transactions involve different countries, the process becomes more complex and slower for everyone.

To better address these challenges and accelerate its long-term vision, Exapro has completed a Management Buy-Out resulting in all active shareholders fully owning the company. This structure ensures strategic independence and long-term alignment with the needs of manufacturers, dealers, and auctioneers worldwide, while enabling sustained investment in product development and service quality.

"This Management Buy-Out secures Exapro's independence and long-term direction," said Thomas Bordier, Chairman of Exapro SAS . "In a market where trust, expertise, and continuity matter, remaining owner-led allows us to make decisions that serve professionals over the long term."

A leadership structure designed for customer impact

Alongside the transaction, Exapro is evolving its leadership structure to support faster execution and a stronger product focus. Robin Mallein, who joined Exapro in 2011 and brings deep end-to-end knowledge of the business, is appointed Chief Executive Officer.

"Our customers are looking for efficient, reliable tools to complete transactions with confidence," said Robin Mallein, CEO of Exapro . "This new chapter allows us to move faster, strengthen our platforms, and deliver more value to professionals operating in a highly international market."

Solving real problems for market professionals

Exapro's mission remains unchanged: to connect buyers and sellers of used industrial machinery, support market professionals with dedicated tools and services, and reduce friction in transactions through a practical, customer-focused approach.

With steadily growing visibility year after year and clear ambitions for the future, Exapro enters this next phase focused on one objective: creating long-term value for the global used machinery market.
