Multi-year partnership establishes an initial trial phase and graduated minimum order commitments, strengthening Primech AI’s international commercialization strategy in a robotics-forward market

SINGAPORE, March 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Primech AI Pte. Ltd. (“Primech AI” or the “Company”), a subsidiary of Primech Holdings Limited (Nasdaq: PMEC), today announced a distribution agreement to expand HYTRON into South Korea, a partnership expected to generate approximately US $4.08 million in projected revenue over three years while establishing a scalable commercial footprint in one of Asia’s most advanced automation markets.

Under the agreement, the partner will serve as Primech AI’s authorized distributor in South Korea, leading localized marketing, sales, deployment, and technical support for Hytron to drive commercial adoption and support scalable deployment across the territory.

The partnership follows a structured rollout beginning with an initial trial phase, after which the distributor may transition into an exclusive multi-year distribution arrangement with defined minimum order commitments, providing a clear pathway to scaled deployment upon successful market validation.

Based on the agreed minimum order quantities and unit pricing, the agreement is expected to generate approximately US$4.08 million in cumulative revenue over three years, comprising an initial trial order followed by contractually structured increasing annual commitments.

“Our expansion into South Korea represents a meaningful step in scaling HYTRON’s international commercialization,” said Charles Ng, Chief Operating Officer of Primech AI. “ With a structured distribution model and a capable local partner, we are well-positioned to accelerate adoption of our Hytron robots in a market that is highly receptive to automation and smart facility solutions, whole building a foundation for long-term scalable deployment.”

South Korea represents a highly attractive market for robotics and automation, driven by strong technology adoption and increasing demand for productivity-enhancing solutions in facilities management. Through this collaboration, Primech AI aims to establish a scalable in-market presence, leveraging localized support and expertise to drive efficient deployment and consistent service delivery.

The distributor will also manage local certification requirements and provide on-the-ground customer support, helping to streamline market entry, accelerate deployment timelines, and ensure consistent operational performance in the market.
