Martinus North America has entered into a purchase agreement to acquire Bottom Line Company LLC headquartered in Lee’s Summit, Missouri, and has established Martinus Bottom Line that will service the Class 1, Shortline and Industrial markets.
“We’re excited about this new chapter in North America. The acquisition of Bottom Line simply made sense to us. It was an easy decision to bring them into the Martinus family, as they have the skills and knowledge that align with who we are and what we do,” Martinus founder and CEO Treaven Martinus said.
Martinus North America will provide the platform to grow into major projects in transit, high-speed and material supply in North America, which is a strategic approach that has driven Martinus’ growth in Australia, New Zealand, and South America.
At the beginning of 2023 Martinus announced its expansion plans into the North American rail market after identifying significant growth opportunities and Martinus Bottom Line is the first step in its strategy to becoming a leader of the rail infrastructure industry in North America.
Martinus brings a unique approach to rail infrastructure employing more than 1500 people around the world and is known for self-delivery of major projects, using its own workforce and specialized railway machinery to execute construction outcomes to the highest of standards. 2,000 new employees will join the Martinus group and allow for geographical expansion into all areas of North America.
Like Bottom Line, Martinus was established in 2005 by its founder Treaven Martinus and has grown to become an expert in the rail infrastructure industry and is currently building multiple complex projects around the world.
Bottom Line Company with current operations in Australia, New Zealand, and South America, was founded in 2005 and specialises in track construction, bridge construction and maintenance, on track safety, and emergency derailment services. Its professional approach to the industry and record of delivering projects aligns with the core values of Martinus.
