Descriptiontext

Redishred Capital Corp. (CVE:KUT), also operating as Proshred Security, was a Canadian-incorporated, publicly traded holding company that built and operated a network of document shredding and secure destruction businesses in the United States. Founded in 2006 and headquartered in Mississauga, Ontario, the company served business customers with compliance-driven secure document destruction needs through mobile shredding fleets and regional service facilities, delivering recurring shredding and recycling services as its primary revenue stream.

The company executed an aggressive roll-up strategy in 2024, completing four acquisitions — MDK Recycling LLC (January 2024), Select Shred, Inc. (May 2024), Select Shred in Florida (June 2024), and Confidential Shredding in New York and New Jersey (July 2024) — to consolidate a fragmented North American shredding market. Acquired targets operated at attractive unit economics (Select Shred generated approximately $0.3M USD in 2023 revenue at 35–40% EBITDA margins), and management framed the deals as accretive to cash flows and earnings per share. The roll-up expanded the company's geographic footprint across the Northeast and Southeast U.S. and added recycling capacity to the shredding core.

In February 2025, Redishred Capital was acquired by Vital Records Control (VRC Companies, LLC), a U.S. information governance provider. The transaction ended Redishred's status as an independent publicly listed entity and integrated its shredding operations into VRC's broader suite of offsite records storage, secure shredding, IT asset disposition, and digital records management services. Prior to the acquisition, the company had a market capitalization of approximately C$91.31 million, 51–100 employees, and was led by CEO Jeffrey I. Hasham and CFO Kasia Pawluk.
