Alpharetta, Georgia, August 18, 2025 – MDSi, the IT solutions partner of choice for some of the world’s largest, most trusted network service providers and enterprises, today announced it is joining PedalPoint Holdings, a U.S.-based circular economy platform backed by Korea Zinc, a global leader in non-ferrous metals and sustainable refining.
By joining subsidiary PedalPoint as part of the Korea Zinc portfolio, MDSi will rapidly gain the expanded footprint and financial strength required to serve the growing technology needs of clients navigating the AI era. The partnership brings MDSi expanded warehouse and logistics capacity, capital for growth, integrated resale and ITAD services, and access to Korea Zinc’s downstream recycling capabilities—enabling end-to-end asset recovery and material reuse at scale.
For Korea Zinc, MDSi delivers portfolio diversification by giving them an entry into the network infrastructure and IT services sectors. It also provides them a foothold in the front-end supply chain space, where MDSi has already built a noteworthy network transformation and IT deployment business. And finally, it takes advantage of the natural synergies between the two companies around e-waste acquisition and recycling.
MDSi co-founder Lisa McDonald says the compatibility of the companies is undeniable. “PedalPoint is a proven force in e-waste processing and circular infrastructure. They expand our reach and capabilities, while we bring deep client relationships and decades of expertise in IT sourcing, integration, and asset recovery. It’s a highly complementary fit.”
“This partnership strengthens our position across the circular supply chain,” said a spokesperson for Korea Zinc. “MDSi is a leader in telecom and IT asset transformation, and their services perfectly align with our commitment to sustainability, technology enablement, and resource recovery.”
