Managing Director
Sebastian Poll Sebastian Poll - 2
Founder & Managing Director

Sebastian – our ‘El Capitan’ has set the course of the Tradeo GmbH since its foundation in 2010. His high level of motivation and his passion for this business have since helped the company flourish. His recipe for success: Take one IT enthusiast and add a large dash of personal and economic skill. As business owner and managing director, he is, of course, responsible for everything and everyone in the Tradeo universe..

We are your partner for used servers, storage systems, network equipment and spare parts.
To protect both our customers' wallets and the world's increasingly scarce natural resources, we buy hardware that has already done its first service, but is far from being obsolete. We refurbish these systems for reuse, and offer excellent value for money for almost any modern IT infrastructure requirement - whether for small businesses, midsize companies or large corporations. And we have been doing this since 2010, surrounded by hop fields in a small village in the heart of the Hallertau region.

We keep a large stock of pre-configured servers ready for immediate shipping, but we also offer customised configurations and hardware upgrades for special requirements. More memory, more disk space or faster processors? We can upgrade to your requirements - on the same day. Our teams are passionate about configuring, testing and carefully packing the systems.

Our team of 6 Sales & Support experts is available for any questions, special requests or personalised offers - by chat, phone or email. And if the datasheets only tell half the truth, we can build the configuration you need in our own support laboratory.

We could go on and on about the environment and pat ourselves on the back for things you have heard and read many times before. Instead, here's a brief overview of what we believe is important and how we contribute.

Refurbishing - The reuse of used server technology slows the growth of e-waste, which is a good start.

Recycling - Properly disposing of defective parts within the country keeps valuable raw materials in the cycle and can be reused.

Sustainability - You should always put your own house in order first. That's why we invest in green technology and renewable energy ourselves, and are willing to pay the premium for the more sustainable option with our suppliers to reduce our carbon footprint.

Social responsibility - Fortune is not evenly distributed in society, which is why we support global charities and local initiatives in our region. We help with financial and in-kind donations democratically chosen by our employees.

Of course, we can't do this without satisfied customers. We supply mainly small and medium-sized businesses, but also large companies from many different sectors and, with pleasure, particularly ambitious private customers. You can take a look at some of our customers in our testimonials.

How do we measure whether we are achieving our goals and where we need to improve? The best way is through feedback from our customers, including Trusted Shops ratings. If something has not gone smoothly, please contact us. We will take care to solve the problem quickly.
Ludwig Ludwig - 2
Feel-Good Manager & Food Control

Ludwig has various jobs: For one thing, he greets all visitors and employees and he informs us about deliveries and collections as soon as the doorbell rings. In addition, he uses his excellent sense of smell to make sure all meals are of the best quality and he never gets tired of offering his services as a professional meal taster. He is modest enough to accept a pat on the back from his fans in the different departments as a sufficient reward for his good work – and he won’t say no to some treats. At least long as our boss is okay with it, since Ludwig’s weight has a bit of an upwards tendency :-)

At some point, however, you have to say “Bye Bye University” and start a job – since she studied business economics with HR as her main focus, she is now doing a great job when it comes to managing our staff and potential new colleagues. She puts it like this: “I enjoy human interaction and everything that comes with it – that’s why I’m in human resources”

When the correct things, the right quantity, at the right time and with the right handle come together everywhere, there are two possibilities: Either Taner is in the warehouse and takes care of our goods there, or he whips up something in his kitchen to take back to the office the next day and make a posting to our hip inventory. In both cases, it's a win-win for everyone!
