MIAMI, FL, May 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RenX Enterprises Corp. (NASDAQ: RENX) (“RenX” or the “Company”) today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Zimmer Equipment Inc. (“ZEI”), has been approved as a master carrier for a major U.S. steel manufacturer, authorized to transport steel and steel products between the manufacturer’s facilities across the United States.
The master carrier approval establishes a commercial relationship for ZEI’s hauling operations with one of the largest U.S. steel manufacturers. Under the approval, ZEI is eligible to provide freight transportation and logistics services pursuant to individual shipping orders issued by the manufacturer from time to time. The approval covers transportation of steel products between facilities nationally, providing ZEI with access to a broad and recurring opportunity to compete for industrial freight volume across its logistics operations. ZEI has already received several shipping orders from this manufacturer as a result of the master carrier approval.
The manufacturer is among the largest steel producers in the United States, with production and fabrication facilities operating across the country. The approval reflects ZEI’s established capabilities in heavy equipment hauling and freight logistics and represents a meaningful step in building its industrial customer base. Approved-carrier relationships of this scale provide ZEI with a foundation for scaling its fleet and logistics capacity over the duration of the relationship.
“Zimmer Equipment was built to move heavy loads in demanding environments, and we believe earning master carrier approval with one of the largest steel manufacturers in the country is a strong commercial validation of what ZEI brings to the table,” said David Villarreal, Chief Executive Officer of RenX Enterprises Corp. “This is exactly the kind of durable industrial logistics relationship we are building ZEI’s logistics platform around. Our focus now is on executing well and building a track record that earns more volume over the life of this relationship.”
This master carrier approval represents a continuation of RenX’s strategy to build durable, diversified revenue streams across its operating subsidiaries. Alongside the Company’s ongoing investment in processing infrastructure at Myakka City and the planned deployment of the Microtec UTM 1200 Turbo Mill, management believes ZEI’s expanded industrial logistics relationships are an important component of the Company’s broader platform for generating diversified revenue across its operations.
