Mile Marker International, Inc. Announces Another Large Military Order

POMPANO BEACH, Fla.--Oct. 6, 2005--Mile Marker International, Inc. (OTCBB:MMRK), a specialty vehicle parts supplier, announced the receipt of another purchase order from the U.S. military of $1,909,042 for its unique hydraulic winch/bumper assemblies.

Mile Marker International, Inc. today announced the receipt of a second order against its $40 million contract issued on February 14, 2005 with a maximum potential of 15,975 hydraulic winch/bumper assemblies. This purchase order calls for the delivery of 751 additional Mile Marker hydraulic winch/bumper assemblies with a dollar value of $1,909,042 under the Company's multi-year military contract.

Richard Aho, President and CEO of Mile Marker International, Inc., said: "We expect to ship this entire purchase order during the fourth quarter of 2005. As we have repeatedly stated, we cannot predict the timing of our military purchase orders, but we currently have approximately $55 million in unfilled orders under five different contracts. We have therefore increased our resources as we need to respond promptly to such purchase orders. This has had the effect of increasing some of our costs in the short-run. Meanwhile, our commercial winch business continues to grow rapidly."

Mile Marker International, Inc., through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Mile Marker, Inc., is a manufacturer and distributor of specialized vehicle parts primarily for the four-wheel drive recreational, utility and military vehicle markets. Mile Marker's unique patented line of hydraulic winches uses a vehicle's power steering pump as its source of energy.
