MIAMI, FL, April 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NextNRG, Inc. (NASDAQ:NXXT), a pioneer in AI-driven energy innovation transforming how energy is produced, managed, and delivered, today announced the expansion of its operations into Gainesville, Florida, through its mobile fueling division, EzFill. Operating through its Jacksonville hub, EzFill is now actively servicing one of its largest commercial customers at a major distribution facility in the Gainesville area, strengthening the company's presence in Florida and adding high-volume fueling density to its existing network.

The Gainesville expansion leverages EzFill's existing Florida infrastructure, with drivers operating out of its Jacksonville hub to service the new location. The distribution facility in Gainesville is among the largest of its kind in the country, representing a significant volume opportunity that made the operational extension a compelling decision for the company.

This operational growth reflects EzFill's disciplined, data-driven approach to expansion, with new opportunities evaluated based on volume potential, customer density, and the ability to maximize return on existing infrastructure rather than deploying capital into standalone operations prematurely.

"We are focused on building density and growing our volumes with existing customers and within the states where we already operate," said Michael D. Farkas, CEO and Founder of NextNRG. "The Gainesville expansion is a prime example of how we identify high-value opportunities and execute efficiently. When a station of this size and volume becomes available, we move decisively."

Yehuda Levy, Director of Mobile Fueling, added, "Gainesville represents exactly the kind of strategic opportunity we pursue: a high-volume location where we can service a major customer from our existing Florida base. We ran the numbers, the economics were compelling, and we executed. This is how we grow EzFill in a way that is both disciplined and profitable."

EzFill currently operates one of the nation's largest on-demand and fleet fueling networks, serving commercial customers, last-mile delivery operators, and enterprise fleets across multiple states. The company's mobile fueling model eliminates the need for customers to visit traditional fuel stations, delivering directly to vehicles at their operational locations.
