MSP was set up by guys who have worked in the steel industry their whole lives and put down local roots to build their dream. We're not a division of a multinational firm or a new gambit by some private equity fund. We're in steel processing because it's what we know, what we love and what we're really good at.

Our goal was to grow MSP to where our capacity was reached so we would have to expand within two years. That happened because we offered value in toll processing. The formula:
|
| |
• Mill-adjacent location that minimizes freight cost and handling
• Sturdy, state-of-the-art processing equipment
• Information system that instantly shows inventory, schedule, status, QC
• Intelligent, incentivized and well-trained workforce
• Comprehensive quality procedures and ISO certification
• An intense, unrelenting focus on our customers' success
|

That last item often trips up companies who are not "problem solvers" at heart. MSP leaders understand the need to look beyond the customers' order sheet to investigate how they use their steel, what their inventory turns are, their most frequent causes of rejects, etc. Using that knowledge, we'll devise a new program for JIT inventory and logistics, for first stage
fabrication of parts, for special protective treatment or packaging of lifts or coils.

It's what you do when you're a problem solver at heart and you love the steel business.
OUR INTENTION
We are proud to be part of the "re-industrializing" of the USA that has taken root in the Southeast. In these next several years, MSP intends to grow by serving the auto, metal buildings, appliance and machine manufacturers that call the Southeastern US their home.
I personally look forward to visiting every single one of our customers, learning how you use the steel we toll process for you, and what we can do to add greater value that helps foster your success.
