Trademark Metals Recycling opened an advanced metal recovery facility in Bushnell, Fla.
The 100,000-square-foot facility encompassing several buildings will use the latest recycling technology to produce raw materials that will re-enter the supply chain, the company said.
About $150 million was invested in the project, not including the land purchase, Trademark said. The facility employs 67 staff members across two shifts.
“We are very fortunate to have a partner such as TMR investing in our community,” said Sumter County Vice Chairman Jeffrey Bogue. “The technology that TMR is bringing to this community will create long-term high-paying jobs while providing for sustainability in the recycling industry.”
Trademark Metals Recycling LLC is a wholly owned subsidiary of The David J. Joseph Company, (DJJ), one of the largest scrap brokers/processors in the country. DJJ is part of Charlotte, N.C.-based steelmaker Nucor Corp.
