In a September 14 live webcast auction, Machinery Network Auctions and Tiger Group are offering machinery and equipment from the now-shuttered Jefferson plant of global automotive supplier Toledo Molding & Die, Inc.
Bidding on the equipment is already underway on Bidspotter and will go live at 10 a.m. (ET) on September 14.
