Free Webinar Wednesday as We Chat with Olympic Steel CEO
Written by Michael Cowden
April 12, 2021
Olympic Steel CEO Rick Marabito will be the featured speaker at the next SMU Community Chat on Wednesday, April 14, at 11 a.m. ET.
Marabito will bring a service center perspective to the current steel market in a one-on-one discussion with SMU. (Translation: This will not be death by PowerPoint.)
Topics will include infrastructure, supply chain disruptions stemming from COVID-19, and port congestion. The broader question: Will such issues result in more regional supply chains and better domestic steel demand?
We’ll also discuss M&A, the impact of high steel prices on inventory turns, credit, and the risks of long lead times.
Join us for this 40-minute webinar, which is free and open to all. Click here to register.
