AmeraMex International, a provider of heavy equipment for logistics companies, infrastructure construction, logging and farming companies, received $800,000 in equipment orders.

The first order was for container handlers shipping to a company in Southern California. The second order was for large specialty forklifts. The forklifts are shipping to a sawmill in California. The company has also purchased three container handlers for transport to the company’s facility in Chico, CA to be refurbished and added to inventory.

AmeraMex CEO Lee Hamre said, “We have seen a significant increase in requests for proposals (RFPs) both in the U.S. and internationally, with the recent election results. In addition to our normal heavy equipment RFPs, we have six active proposals with potential buyers of our Menzi Muck equipment. We are also beginning to see a growth in infrastructure projects, which will allow us to expand our rental fleet to the projected $10 million valuation within the next 24 to 36 months. The increase in potential business has allowed us to hire a new sales person and a new shop superintendent. We are expecting another year of sales growth for the company.”

AmeraMex International sells, leases and rents heavy equipment to companies within five industries: construction (light and infrastructure), logistics companies, commercial farming and logging.
