EAST WINDSOR, N.J., April 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- HEVI Corp. ("HEVI" or the "Company"), a manufacturer of all-electric heavy construction and farming machinery, today announced the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey has agreed to purchase the Company's HEVI GEL-5000 all-electric front loader. This is another important purchase order and reflects the ongoing electrification of key industrial and commerce centers as they target reduced costs and increased operating efficiencies.

Raymond Wang, CEO of HEVI, commented, "Our team is thrilled about the recent sale to the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. This milestone isn't just strategically significant; it's also a testament to our capabilities and a major victory. It highlights the growing momentum behind our electric industrial vehicles. This year marks a crucial phase where we're focused on capitalizing on our vehicle assets and significantly expanding our sales now that our manufacturing, assembly, and sales infrastructure are fully operational. Our confidence in our future prospects is stronger than ever. We believe we're on the cusp of a significant shift, where large organizations like the Port Authority recognize the undeniable value we offer in helping them achieve their sustainability objectives, while simultaneously cutting down on total ownership costs and maintenance for their industrial equipment."

The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (the "Port Authority") is a bi-state agency that builds, operates, and maintains many of the most important transportation and trade infrastructure assets in the country. For over a century, the agency's network of major airports; critical bridges, tunnels and bus terminals; a commuter rail line; and the busiest seaport on the East Coast has been among the most vital in the country – transporting hundreds of millions of people and moving essential goods into and out of the region. The Port Authority also owns and manages the 16-acre World Trade Center campus, which today welcomes tens of thousands of office workers and millions of annual visitors. The agency's historic $37 billion 10-year capital plan includes unprecedented transformation of the region's three major airports – LaGuardia, Newark Liberty and JFK – as well as an array of other new and upgraded assets, including the $2 billion renovation of the 90-year-old George Washington Bridge. The Port Authority's annual budget of $8 billion includes no tax revenue from either the states of New York or New Jersey or from the City of New York. The agency raises the necessary funds for the improvement, construction or acquisition of its facilities primarily on its own credit.
