SALT
LAKE CITY, UTAH, Dec. 9 2003 — RecycleNet Corporation
(OTC-BB: GARM) today announced the official launch of RecycleXchange.com
(www.recyclexchange.com), an online marketplace for the
buying and selling recyclable materials in Canada.
RecycleNet
(www.recycle.net), which operates the leading online trading
platform for recyclable industrial materials, said it acquired
the Internet portal RecycleXchange.com in February 2003
and has successfully re-launched the site to serve as Canada's
premier recycling marketplace for materials such as glass,
metal, rubber, paper, wood, plastic, chemicals, textiles,
batteries, along with electronic equipment and consumer
items.
Utilizing
the same network and platform as the Company’s main
portal of www.recycle.net, RecycleXchange.com is organized
into categories and grades of each material. Industrial
generators of recyclable materials, along with brokers,
dealers, processors and consumers, use the site to list
materials to buy or sell. In addition, RecycleXchange.com
includes directories of industry associations, publications
and companies relevant to the Canadian recycling marketplace,
along with listings for jobs, freight services and used
equipment.
The
Company said the launch of RecycleXchange.com reflects RecycleNet's
corporate goal of increasing the level and range of services
it provides to its Canadian clients. The site is unique
among RecycleNet’s network of sites in specifically
targeting the Canadian marketplace. Currently, RecycleNet
Corporation's network of web sites reports 1.8 million unique
web site visitors per month from over 150 countries worldwide.
"This
is an excellent opportunity for us to increase our presence
in the growing Canadian recycling sector,” said Paul
Roszel, Chairman and CEO of RecycleNet Corporation. “The
RecycleXchange.com website provides valuable resources to
industrial users and clients, creating a centralized information
hub for the entire Canadian recyclables market."
Roszel
said the launch of RecycleXchange.com illustrates RecycleNet's
strategy of pursuing its aggressive growth plan through
mergers, acquisitions, strategic alliances, joint ventures
and other relationships, while also expanding top-line revenue.
RecycleNet
Corporation (OTC-BB: GARM) was founded in 1995 as an online
trading system for recyclable materials. The Company has
grown its network of trading sites to serve more than 1.8
million unique users per month, including generators, brokers,
dealers, processors and consumers of recyclable materials
