How To Buy “The DAB Livestock Auction Hub Way”
Through its nationwide marketing network, DAB Livestock Auction Hub offers load lots and individual lots of cattle at auction and on the Internet. From producers throughout the Island of Ireland, The UK and mainland Europe to buyers throughout the Island of Ireland, The UK and mainland Europe.
The Auctions are conducted live, with an auctioneer, as cattle are sold to buyers bidding at the auction site or on the internet. Buyers can either be present at the auction site (if applicable) or view the auction or on the internet from the comfort of their office, home or wherever they may be.
DAB Livestock Auction Hub also offers daily internet listings of cattle for sale on the “Daily Market Place Page”.
Unlike conventional marketing methods, buyers have the opportunity to view and buy cattle, shown in their natural surroundings. The cattle are shipped directly from the seller’s farm or holding to the buyer’s destination, which greatly reduces stress and potential health problems.
To begin the process, go to the Register for a Buyer Number page or call Laurelcrest House at +353 (0) 410 9848 and the staff will assist you in registering for a Buyer Number.

Confirmed weights are entered, using the sellers own weighing scales, but weights confirmed by a Livestock Hub inspector, Vet, Teagasc Advisor etc. If no scales are available on farm, then Certified weights in-conjunction with Local Co-op’s and respected Licenced Haulers could also be used.
Estimated weights are entered, unless the seller has a weighing scales, If only estimated weights were provided, then weights would be ascertained via the system above or through the FRS or similar and price per kilo amended based on actual weight.
Buyers would then collect the animals or arrange to have the animals collected animals at the farm or holding. The Livestock Hub would be present for the load out or the a Trusted Livestock Haulier. CMMS/AIM movements would be dealt with at this point.
