CHICO, CA--(Marketwire - September 19, 2007) - AmeraMex International, Inc. (PINKSHEETS : AMMX ),
a provider of heavy equipment to stevedoring, construction, logging and
mining companies, announced today that it was awarded a $1.7 million
contract for break-bulk material handlers. The equipment, destined for a
large U.S. port, will be delivered in 2007.
"The cargo-handling industry has experienced a high level of growth with
over two billion tons of commerce moving through U.S. ports on a yearly
basis," remarked AmeraMex CEO and President Lee Hamre. "Our new
ergonomically designed break-bulk material handlers have a significant
economic impact on the marine cargo handling industry as they reduce much
of the manual work in handling onshore cargo."
Transferring cargo in an efficient and timely manner is a key factor at all
cargo ports. AmeraMex material handlers (large capacity fork lifts)
streamline what has been a time consuming and labor intensive effort by
enabling the stevedores or longshoremen to securely move break-bulk
materials (partial containers and pallets) into storage or from one mode of
transport to another.
