SINGAPORE, Jan. 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Primech Holdings Ltd. (Nasdaq: PMEC), a technology-driven facilities services and robotics company, today announced a $4.0 million strategic investment from WELLE Environmental Group Co., Ltd.

The investment highlights growing market confidence in Primech Holdings’ long-term growth strategy and its expanding role at the intersection of autonomous robotics and technology-enabled facilities services.

We are entering 2026 with a clear strategy, strong execution capabilities, and the capital to accelerate growth across international markets.”

Proceeds from the investment are expected to be deployed to expand robotics research, development, and production capacity, strengthen operational and manufacturing readiness, and support broader deployment of Hytron across commercial environments. The investment will also bolster working capital to support the continued expansion of Primech Holdings’ core facilities management business.

The transaction further deepens the strategic alignment between Primech Holdings and WELLE, building on their previously announced cooperation initiatives in robotics and intelligent operations. By combining Primech’s autonomous robotics platform and facilities expertise with WELLE’s environmental technology footprint and operational scale, the collaboration is positioned to accelerate intelligent automation and sustainable infrastructure solutions across industrial and commercial markets.
