Optimized Transportation Management, Inc. (OTCBB: OPTZ), a supply chain logistics company, is establishing its first company-owned freight brokerage operation in Nashville, Tennessee. The addition of this company owned and operated office will allow OPTZ's brokerage division to generate higher margins than agent brokerage operations alone. Revenues for the Nashville office in the first year are anticipated to be $4 million to $4.5 Million with an estimated 12% net profit margin.

OPTZ's business plan is to build a full service supply chain logistics company by developing a management system for mid-sized manufacturers and distributors, thereby providing the necessary transportation services to complement the system and eventually meeting 100% of the customer's logistical needs.

Larry Berry, Chief Operating Officer of OPTZ, said, The addition of our first 'Company' store to our freight brokerage operations will provide the company with new customers and will allow us to improve our overall profit margin as we continue to build our agency business. Due to the length and depth of experience of the management team that is joining the Company to operate this office, we are anticipating significant revenue and profit growth over the next few years. We feel this initiative is another step toward becoming a one-stop-shop for our customers.
