​
Modern Day Auctions has established itself as a sustainable business through a multifaceted approach that prioritizes environmental, social, and economic considerations. From an environmental standpoint, our platform, Modern Day Bids, has implemented green practices such as minimizing paper usage through digital transactions like creating QR codes for paperless pick-ups.
​
By fostering a virtual marketplace, we reduce the need for physical resources associated with traditional in-person auctions, contributing to a lower carbon footprint. For example, people are not driving to locations to view the items as they are readily available online.
​
Social sustainability is a core tenet, evident in the inclusive and transparent nature of our platform, ensuring fair opportunities for all participants. We make it easy so that anyone can bid and you can view past auction results as well.
​
Additionally, we strive to actively engage with our local community, supporting charitable causes and promoting responsible consumption. The very nature of our business is based on re-selling used furniture and decorative items, so that we are not contributing to the landfills.
​
Economically, our business model is built on a foundation of longevity, with strategic partnerships, efficient resource allocation, and continuous innovation driving financial resilience.
​
Overall, our online auction company stands as a beacon of sustainability, embracing the triple bottom line and demonstrating that profitability can coexist with responsible business practices.
