CHESTNUT RIDGE, N.Y., March 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- BioHiTech Global, Inc. ("BioHiTech" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: BHTG), a technology and services company that provides cost-effective and sustainable waste management solutions, announced today that the Company has received initial purchase orders for its Revolution Series Digesters totaling over $1.5 million  as part of its previously announced purchase contract with Carnival Corporation, the world's largest leisure travel company, and its individual operating companies (collectively "Carnival") with an estimated value of up to $14 million.

The Company expects to begin delivery of these units in the second quarter and to continue filling orders on a rolling basis through 2021.  As previously announced, the purchase contract calls for BioHiTech to provide each ship, designated by Carnival, with multiple Revolution Series Digesters as well as ongoing cloud-based data analytics and supplies.  BioHiTech's Revolution Series Digesters will help reduce the environmental impact of Carnival's operations by safely disposing of food waste on-site, limiting the amount of greenhouse gases emitted from conventional processing systems. The Company's data analytics platform will also provide real-time supply chain transparency to help in Carnival's food waste reduction efforts.

"We are pleased to have received these initial purchase orders from Carnival as we enter the execution phase of this important contract," said Frank E. Celli, CEO of BioHiTech Global. "We look forward to delivering the products and services to assist Carnival with their ongoing efforts to reduce greenhouse gasses and achieve important sustainability goals."
