Puradyn To Build On Strong First Half Results By Expanding Relationship With MNI To Increase Adoption In Commercial Marine Category
New agreement will grow business throughout Mississippi and Ohio River Valleys as well as U.S. Gulf Coast
BOYNTON BEACH, Fla., Aug. 29, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Puradyn Filter Technologies Incorporated () announced today that is has entered into a new agreement with MNI Diesel, LLC (“MNI”) with locations in Houston, TX and Corpus Christi, TX whereby MNI will become the exclusive distributor of Puradyn products to the commercial marine industry for the Ohio and Mississippi River Valleys and the U.S. Gulf Coast of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama.
Ed Vittoria, CEO of Puradyn, remarked, “We are very pleased to expand upon our successful relationship with MNI. As reported in our recent second quarter results, we have seen a significant increase in revenues this year across several categories. Our exclusive distributor agreement in the oil and gas sector continues to build momentum and provides exposure to end clients that would be difficult to secure on our own, and we believe there is a similar opportunity within the commercial marine segment. MNI has been advocating for and installing Puradyn systems for over five years, and we believe that their experience with our product is invaluable in our expansion to other marine fleets as well as signing additional marine distributors and engine repair facilities to promote Puradyn systems. We look forward to jointly growing Puradyn awareness and usage and providing more marine customers with an unprecedented reduction in engine maintenance and overall life cycle cost.”
Harry Lartigue Sr., MNI’s founder, commented on the agreement, “MNI is looking forward to our expanded partnership with Puradyn. We know firsthand how effective the Puradyn systems are in safely extending oil change intervals and extending overall engine life due to cleaner oil, and we strongly recommend them to our clients. The commercial marine industry along the Gulf Coast and up through the Mississippi and Ohio River Valleys offers significant potential, and we will leverage our engine and maintenance experience to drive sales for the most effective oil bypass filtration system on the market.”
