BENEFITS OF MEMBERSHIP

Becoming part of the FGM ecosystem provides member companies all the advantage of being aligned with the most advanced risk management and financial derivatives desk in the steel industry. That leverage is combined with a true partnership for steel sourcing from Flack Metal Supply (FMS) to unlock cost efficiencies, ensure market predictability, expand market share, and bolster enterprise value. The benefits member companies gain from joining with FMI would be challenging, if not impossible, to achieve independently.

When a company aligns with our investment thesis, it’s not just capital we bring to the table – it’s a partnership grounded in shared ambition and mutual respect.
