AmeraMex International Receives $400,000 Order for Container Handlers
Company has submitted $2 million bid for additional container handlers
CHICO, CAÂ -- AmeraMex International, Inc. (OTC: AMMX), a provider of heavy equipment for logistics companies (stevedoring), infrastructure construction, commercial farming and mining companies, announced that it has received an equipment order totaling $400,000 for refurbished container handlers. The company also reported that it has submitted a $2 million equipment bid to a large port facility in the U.S. The bid is expected to be awarded the end of July 2013.
In addition to increased sales activity within the U.S., the company has purchased a package of used material handling equipment. This equipment will be refurbished at the company’s Chico, Calif. facilities for resale. “Our ability to purchased packages of used equipment, which is refurbished to like new condition, is an effective means of increasing our profit margins along with our bottom line,” said AmeraMex CEO Lee Hamre. “With the competitive nature of the equipment business, new equipment sold in the U.S. carries much lower margins then refurbished equipment.”
