Liberty Steel Georgetown Back in Business Monday
Written by Sandy Williams
Liberty Steel is set to reopen on Monday, June 25, in Georgetown, S.C. The wire-rod rolling facility, purchased by London-based Liberty House in December, will be renamed Liberty Steel Georgetown. Currently, the mill is in a testing phase, but is expected to begin production soon.
United Steelworkers Union Local 7898 credits the recent tariffs on imported steel and aluminum for the mill’s comeback. The Georgetown mill will eventually employ 270 workers and 50 salaried employees.
