COMPANY PROFILE

Empire Resources, Inc. is a distributor of un-finished, semi-finished, value added aluminium and steel products headquartered in Fort Lee, NJ.

We also serve customers in Australia and New Zealand through our subsidiary Empire Resources Pacific LTD, and in Europe through our Belgian subsidiary, Imbali Metals BVBA and in the UK through our subsidiary Empire Resources (UK) Ltd.

Our customers range in shape and size and are spread across the 4 corners of the UK and Ireland. They include large Multi-Nationals with multiple Service Centres, Metal Centres/Hubs as well as smaller Independent Stockists. We offer customers an alternative source of quality products and we assume responsibility for the shipment and timely delivery of products to them.

We source our products to meet the pricing and delivery needs of our customers from carefully selected suppliers throughout the world. Our aluminium products include sheet, shate, tread plate, plate, coil, slit coil, circles and foil. 

We have a growth-driven strategy focused on the following:

  • Provide customers with a high level of service and cost-effective quality products:
    We work closely with customers to understand and meet their requirements.  We also offer ancillary services such as arranging warehousing for just-in-time delivery, providing timely market trend and product development information, arranging subsequent metal processing or finishing services as needed, and making material available from our own stock to meet their short-term requirements.
  • Expand volume and product breadth with existing customers and suppliers:
    We continually seek opportunities to introduce new product lines to our customers and increase volume with our suppliers through our constant monitoring of market developments, supplier production capabilities and potential customer needs.
  • Strengthen and expand supplier relationships:
    We focus on building our supply sources both by expanding our existing supplier relationships and adding new suppliers through our market knowledge and the calibre and range of our customer base.
  • Provide efficient and cost-competitive handling and delivery services:
    We have carefully selected partners that offer endless warehousing capacity to provide just-in-time delivery as well as handling capability and inventory control at both the Port and at our base in the West Midlands. This reduces freight and handling expenses while increasing efficiency. It also enables us to monitor deliveries and serve customers more effectively.
  • Provide additional products and value-added services:
    With a flexible and approachable mind-set, ERUK can offer many other services that make the lives of our customers easier. Working in collaborations, mutually benefits both parties and maximises profitability.
  • Maintain a strong balance sheet:
    We have a reputation for reliability that has been built upon our financial strength. Maintaining a strong balance sheet is central to our growth plan, whilst offering our clients the security they seek in a quality supplier.
