CHICO, CA--(Marketwire - January 7, 2008) - AmeraMex International, Inc. (PINKSHEETS : AMMX ),
a provider of heavy equipment to shipping, construction, logging and mining
companies, today announced it shipped orders totaling $1.6 million to two
logistics support companies located in Seattle and Long Beach, CA.
"We were pleased to announce that we have completed the shipment of
container handlers to customers providing logistical support at the Port of
Long Beach and the Port of Seattle," commented AmeraMex President and CEO
Lee Hamre. "Logistical support companies, often called stevedoring
companies, are responsible for the loading and unloading of containers for
the shipping industry. Once unloaded, containers of goods are moved into
storage locations or loaded onto trucks or rail cars. Logistics support
companies present a large market for AmeraMex as imports have risen from 12
percent of GDP in 1995 to approximately 17 percent," added Hamre.
