FGM RANKS NO.15 ON FORTUNE’S BEST WORKPLACES LIST
CONSTRUCTION PRODUCTS
OUR DIVERSITY = YOUR CERTAINTY
There are risks associated with depending on just one or two mills. Or just one processor. Or one warehouse. Or, honestly, depending on just one country’s steel industry. Especially for construction projects where lead times might be long, but timelines are tight. That’s why FGM sources from global companies whose teams know us by name and vice versa. We’ve invested in these relationships regardless of the market. While others will abandon international sources when it suits their whim, global producers seek to do business with FGM because they know we are financially secure and a solid partner in the space. Our supply chain diversity equals your physical supply certainty.

It is important for us to support the people and organizations who have supported FGM for the last decade, and longer. Many FGM construction products customers came to us when we acquired the expertise of the Kenwood Painted Metals team in 2017, after they had been with Kenwood for years. It is many of those construction product experts staffing the FGM booth at industry meetings and tradeshows we support including:
