The opportunity
Why this business works now
Manufacturers, workshops, demolition projects and households produce metal that can return to the supply chain. A professional dealer creates value by weighing accurately, identifying grades, controlling purchases and building dependable outlets for processed stock. The plan explains supplier intake, identity records, pricing, sorting, storage, processing, stock reconciliation, sales and collections.
Ferrous and non-ferrous metals
Different grades provide a mix of volume and margin opportunities.
Supplier and buyer network
Collection sources feed material to mills, foundries and larger processors.
Controlled yard operations
Weighing, records, sorting and security support a trusted dealership.
