Arlington Heights, IL, May 12, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Nexus Distribution is pleased to announce that it has been recognized by the United States Environmental Protection Agency as a SmartWay Transport Partner.
SmartWaySM is an innovative partnership of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency that reduces greenhouse gases and other air pollutants and improves fuel efficiency.
