At Steel Technologies, we transform flat-rolled steel into products that meet the exact specifications of customers in a dynamic range of industries from automotive parts to agriculture equipment to consumer goods. As a growth-oriented company, we know that our success depends on the success of those we serve. That’s why “excellence,” “quality,” “safety,” and “commitment” are not just industry buzzwords at Steel Technologies— they are how we conduct our daily business.
Founded in 1971 our first plant was located in Eminence, Kentucky and is still a core manufacturing location today. Steel Technologies successfully completed an IPO in 1985 and was traded on the NASDAQ stock market. In 2007 Steel Technologies merged with Mitsui & Co (U.S.A.), Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Mitsui & Co., LTD. In 2010 Mitsui formed the new joint venture with Nucor Corporation named “NuMit”, which now owns 100% of Steel Technologies.
From our headquarters in Louisville, Kentucky, Steel Technologies LLC currently operates 24 facilities strategically located throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico. We are pleased to announce that we will soon begin construction on our 25th plant, a new “Greenfield” site located in Pesqueria, Mexico. With continued momentum and growth in Mexico, we have committed to develop a 26th plant in the Bajio region of central Mexico.
Our robust North American platform employs more than 1,300 people, produces over $1.7 billion in annual sales, and allows us to offer supply chain solutions and logistical advantages unmatched in our industry today. At Steel Technologies we are not only proud of where we have started, but we are extremely excited about building into the future. We look forward to serving our customers for many years to come.
