Alliance Steel announced this week plans to invest $19.7 million to establish operations in Gary, Indiana. The investment will include purchasing and equipping a 250,000-square-foot facility as well as creating up to 130 new jobs by 2023. The company, which started in Bedford Park, Illinois, currently employs approximately 100 associates.
The new facility will allow Alliance Steel to expand its flat-rolled steel supply and coil processing for the automotive, construction, agriculture, transportation, energy, material handling and appliance industries. The company plans to begin renovations in early 2019 and expects to be operational in northwest Indiana by January 2020.
