Family Heritage · Agricultural Experience
A reputation built in the communities we serve
Sheard Auctioneers was officially registered as a Closed Corporation in 1998.
The Members are the father and son team of Chris and Ian Sheard. Together these two men share a vast knowledge of the livestock industry, with over 30 years of experience.
Whether it be a Livestock Sale, a dispersal sale, Breeding Stock, or any other auction, they are the team to contact.
Chris and Ian both farm in the Cathcart district. They are community-driven and always lend a helping hand.
Being farmers, they realise the importance of a good value chain for the farmer.
Both men have their own cattle stud, Chris with a SENEPOL BEEF stud, and Ian with a BRAHMAN stud.
Many farmers in the area and further afield have made use of animals in their commercial herds very successfully.
Transportation of stock has always been important and Chris can provide transport at a competitive rate.
The company sports a comprehensive property division as well.
