I. Hennig is pleased to announce the launch of its innovative rough trading platform “Virtual Broker”.

Virtual Broker (VB) provides a secure environment for rough diamond trading where sellers and buyers can negotiate directly between themselves on a wide range of goods.

Viewings will take place at the Hennig Tenders offices in Antwerp and all transactions will take place online via the platform.

The VB sales events will operate with a new format where sellers and buyers can negotiate and close deals online at any given time without having to wait until the end of an event. Any bids made on the platform are received immediately by the sellers who can then decide how to respond. Virtual Broker provides an increased level of transparency and control for all participants. I. Hennig will manage all sales transactions through its secure systems.

Virtual Broker also provides additional features such as the “Buy-It-Now” function and the opportunity for selling/purchasing with credit terms, as well as mobile device accessibility.

I. Hennig will provide full training to registered buyers on how to use the platform and its new and exclusive bidding tools during their viewing appointments or on request.

Arik Sela, Managing Director of I. Hennig, comments, “We are extremely excited to launch Virtual Broker – our new digital marketplace for rough trading – which we believe is the natural next step in the evolution of tender and auction-type diamond sales. This will serve as an innovative and transparent trading tool for buyers and sellers alike from across the globe; we have lined up a select group of international suppliers to participate with an exciting range of goods to present to our clients.”
