Liberty Steel Georgetown names general manager

Company is preparing to reopen South Carolina wire mill.

Liberty Steel USA has announced it has named Revansidha Gulve the new general manager of its plant in Georgetown, South Carolina. The addition of Gulve comes as the company nears the end of its process to restart the wire rod mill.

Liberty House Group,  the parent company of Liberty Steel USA, acquired the Georgetown plant from ArcelorMittal in December 2017 as the first part of its plan to bring what it calls its Greensteel vision for low-carbon steel production to the United States. Liberty House Group, based in the United Kingdom, says the acquisition of the Georgetown plant is the first of what it says will be additional acquisitions in the U.S.
