Greenstar Recycling, based in Houston, and Waste Pro USA, headquartered in Longwood, Fla., have announced an agreement signed that covers service in Waste Pro’s Atlanta area. Under terms of the agreement, Waste Pro will receive recycling processing equipment, while Greenstar will provide the marketing of recovered commodities from Waste Pro's Atlanta recycling facility. The agreement includes Greenstar responsibility for marketing additional Waste Pro recyclable commodities throughout its business in the South.
"This agreement is a strategic win for both parties. Waste Pro will expand its existing recycling operations in Atlanta, and Greenstar will grow its commodity marketing business, resulting in better economies of scale for both businesses. Waste Pro represents an important customer segment for Greenstar - not only do we work directly with municipalities and businesses, but also through strategic alliances with leading integrated waste management companies like Waste Pro," says Matt Delnick, Greenstar Recycling CEO.
"We are excited about this agreement. I look forward to the continued expansion of our Atlanta recycling processing facilities (American Recycling of Georgia) with such a professional company as Greenstar," says John Jennings, Waste Pro USA president and CEO. "Waste Pro has invested more than $3 million in our Atlanta processing facility, and Greenstar offers top of the market pricing, prompt payment and accurate reporting on our commodity sales."
