With more than 25 years of experience, we are well equipped to meet the unique and demanding standards of the steel industry. Our location in Central Kentucky combines the customized service of a small, local shop with the expertise and resources of an international company.  Kentucky Steel Center would love to be your go-to steel supplier!

The Kentucky Steel Center Story

Founded in 1996 as a subsidiary of Tokyo-based Nippon Steel Trading, Nippon Steel Trading America, and Kanpoh Steel, Kentucky Steel Center is a local enterprise with global roots. These parent companies saw a need to support not only Kentucky manufacturers such as Georgetown’s Toyota manufacturing plant, but also the beautiful town of Berea, Kentucky.

Berea proved to be an ideal location for our 120,000 sq ft facility, with three slitting lines and two cut-to-length lines. KSC is one of the only steel service centers in the state, so is uniquely suited to service area suppliers in Kentucky and surrounding states. Though we began by servicing any manufacturer with a need for steel, in 2001, we recognized the demand for expertise in the steel used by automotive manufacturers.  At that time, we started to exclusively serve automotive manufacturers. This change led to rapid growth.

Knowing that the automotive industry holds some of the highest standards in the steel industry, KSC decided to again offer their high-quality steel and superior services to all sectors of the industry.

Quality-committed. Our customers are routinely impressed with the quality of the steel we provide.

Dependable. We under promise and over-deliver. Our just-in-time delivery methods ensure that customers get the parts they need right when they need them.
