Bonhams announces its best-ever first-half year results in the company's history. From January to June 2023, the Bonhams network achieved more than $550,000,000 with sales across the globe.
This is a 32% increase in sales for Bonhams Network from last year. Excluding the acquisitions made in 2022, Bonhams itself grew by 20%. This builds upon the results for 2022, in which the company achieved $1billion for the year for the first time.
Bruno Vinciguerra, Bonhams Chief Executive Officer, commented: "Following a breakthrough year for Bonhams in 2022 when the network achieved $1 Billion turnover for the first time in its history, it is a pleasure to announce such strong results in the first half of 2023. The auction houses acquired last year continue to strengthen Bonhams global network, and we have seen a number of memorable sales across the world and achieved some remarkable results. These results confirm the increasing digitisation and globalisation of the art market across all price points, the two forces underpinning Bonhams' growth strategy."
