Meet the Founder
Larry Garafola Founder and CEO
Larry’s journey in the auction industry began as an international buyer at auctions for his own construction company. Upon returning from an auction overseas he decided there had to be a way to purchase at auctions without being onsite. This triggered the birth of Equipmentfacts, the first-ever online marketplace dedicated to equipment and truck auctions. He recognized the immense potential of leveraging technology to transform the auction experience. Under his visionary leadership, it quickly gained prominence as the go-to platform for industry professionals, connecting buyers and sellers in an efficient, user-friendly, and transparent manner. Larry also ventured into new territory by founding Auction Techs. He spearheaded the development of white label auction software that empowers auctioneers to create their own customized auction platforms. Today, Auction Techs stands at the forefront of the industry, offering cutting-edge technology solutions that streamline the auction process and empower businesses to take control of their auctions.
Driven by his passion for innovation and his desire to push the boundaries of what was possible, Larry ventured into new territory by founding Heavy Metal Exchange.
