SMU Service Center Inventories Rise to 2.7 Months of Supply
Written by John Packard
Flat rolled steel inventories at the service centers rose at the end of March, according to the data providers working with Steel Market Update.
SMU has been collecting service center data for almost two years now. Six months back, with the help of the CRU team, we changed the way we were collecting and the information we were collecting to make it more valuable for our data providers and ultimately for the industry. We have been adding new service centers who provide flat rolled and plate steels to the manufacturers and fabricators. We would like to add even more distributors. If you would like to find out more about what it means to be a data provider and how to begin, please contact John Packard at John@SteelMarketUpdate.com or Estelle Tran at Estelle.Tran@crugroup.com.
