steel works at Ostrava<\/a> in the Czech Republic and Galati in Romania as well as rolling mills at Skopje (North Macedonia), Piombino (Italy), Dudelange (Luxembourg) and two plants near Liege in Belgium, it said.<\/p>\nThese seven sites employ over 14,000 people.<\/p>\n
The five service centres which market the products are based in France and Italy.<\/p>\n
These operations, with a combined rolling capacity of over ten million tonne per annum supply steel to multiple sectors across Europe’s industrial heartlands, including construction and infrastructure products, automotive, aerospace, energy, industrial equipment, consumer products and yellow goods.<\/p>\n
“Liberty Steel today (Monday) completed acquisition of seven major steelworks and five service centres across seven European countries from ArcelorMittal.<\/p>\n
“The 740 million euros deal makes Liberty Steel one of the top ten producers globally, excluding China, with a total rolling capacity in excess of 18 million tonne covering a wide range of finished products,” the company, which is part of London-based GFG Alliance, said.<\/p>\n
It said this is the largest single transaction undertaken by GFG and brings the Alliance’s worldwide workforce to nearly 30,000 across 30 counties.<\/p>\n
Liberty Steel said it aims to boost sales from these sites by around 50 per cent over the next three years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
