MingZhu Logistics Holdings, which provides trucking services and logistics in China, has filed for an initial public offering on the U.S. stock market.

The Guangdong-based company plans to list on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol of "YGMZ," by offering 3 million shares at a price range of 4 to 4.5 U.S. dollars apiece, according to its latest prospectus filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Founded in 2002, the company has a sizable truckload fleet consisting of more than 130 tractors and 90 trailers, showed the filing.

China's trucking industry has enjoyed robust development, bolstered by the country's e-commerce boom, steady economic growth, favorable policies and infrastructure improvement.
