A New Chapter: Success at Our First Poznań Fur Auction
We have successfully concluded our first auction in Poznań, marking a pivotal moment in Kopenhagen Fur’s storied history. This event was much more than a commercial success—it was the culmination of a year of intensive effort to re-establish our world-renowned auction systems and advanced infrastructure.
Seeing the global industry reunite under the Kopenhagen Fur banner confirms that our commitment to classical auction, transparency, and long-term partnership remains the industry’s gold standard.
Auction Highlights
Market Confidence
We offered nearly 1.3 million mink skins, alongside curated collections of Chinchilla, dressed skins, and wild fur. The auction saw a 100% clearance rate, driven by fierce international competition and strong price formation.
A Symbolic Opening
We honored our heritage by opening with a Palomino Toplot, mirroring the final lot sold at our previous operations. The opening lot achieved 4,800 EUR per skin. Following sustained and fierce on-site bidding, the lot was ultimately won by WANG ZONE, a leading Chinese e-commerce brand, drawing thunderous applause from the audience.

Global Presence
Over 500 guests joining our gala, celebrating the re-launch of Kopenhagen Fur in Poland with the traditional Polish folk dance and orchestra singing, showcasing our strong ties to markets and whole supply chain across the globe. Everyone remarked with delight that the familiar atmosphere of Kopenhagen Fur has returned.
Operational Excellence
The successful execution of this auction validates our decision to centralize operations in Poznań, where our expert Danish professional team and specialized skills combined with our local skillful task-force continue to uphold the rigorous auction system our partners expect. Meanwhile, this decision will enable us to better support and stabilize the professional production from upstream farmers—one of the cornerstones of the entire industry.
Moving Forward Together
This success belongs to our farmers, whose dedication to quality makes our brand possible and also to our buyers, whose trust in our auction system continues to drive the market forward.
As we look toward our next auction in Poland, our focus remains on stability and value creation. We are not just trading skins; we are building a sustainable future for the entire fur value chain.
