Allied Critical Metals Inc. (CSE: ACM,OTC:ACMIF) (OTCQB: ACMIF) (FSE: 0VJ0) ("Allied" or the "Company"), which is focused on its 100% owned past producing Borralha and Vila Verde tungsten projects in northern Portugal, is pleased to announce its listing on the OTCQB and the formation of its wholly owned U.S. subsidiary, Allied Critical Metals (USA), Inc. ("Allied USA"), headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee. This strategic expansion marks a key milestone in ACM's North American growth strategy and underscores its commitment to securing and supplying critical minerals to key U.S. industries.
United States Subsidiary
Allied USA will focus on the importation, marketing, and distribution of premium tungsten products across a range of sectors, including defense, aerospace, electronics, energy, and advanced manufacturing. Recognized for its exceptional hardness, density, and heat resistance, tungsten is essential to the development of high-performance technologies and national security applications.
"We are proud to establish a dedicated U.S. subsidiary as we scale operations to meet rising domestic demand for strategic materials," said Roy Bonnell, CEO of Allied Critical Metals. "The United States is a cornerstone market for tungsten, and Allied USA will allow us to serve our customers more directly with enhanced supply chain efficiency and superior product quality."
The launch of Allied USA comes amid increasing interest in diversifying and securing domestic sources of critical minerals. With a focus on reliability, responsiveness, and technical excellence, Allied USA is positioned to become a trusted tungsten partner for U.S. manufacturers and government contractors.
Led by a team with deep industry expertise and strong market insight, Allied USA will prioritize building lasting customer relationships and ensuring the timely delivery of high-performance tungsten products across the country.
OTCQB Listing
Allied Critical Metals' common shares are now trading in the United States on the OTCQB under the symbol "ACMIF".
Roy Bonnell, CEO & Director commented, "Given the urgency to secure western sources of Tungsten and other critical metals, by the United States, securing an OTCQB listing was a priority for Allied. We expect U.S. investors will be a big part of the Company's success as we move forward."
To qualify for the OTCQB, companies must meet high financial standards, follow best practice corporate governance, demonstrate compliance with U.S. securities laws, be current in their disclosures, and have a professional third-party sponsor introduction.
