Georgetown Steel Plant in Georgetown, SC


Georgetown Steel was started by German industrialist Willy Korf in 1969. In 2003 it filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, and soon ceased production. The next year the former International Steel Group (ISG) purchased the remains of Georgetown Steel for $18 million. And in 2005 Mittal bought ISG, making Georgetown a part of its US operations. The plant manufactures steel wire rod products.
