Alro Metals Outlet has opened a new retail location in northern Indiana.

Arlo Steel

The new 17,500-square-foot outlet located in Elkhart, Ind., stocks a variety of carbon steel, aluminum, stainless steel, tool steel, copper, brass, and plastic products.

Alro aims to make metal buying simple for businesses and individual customers with its outlet locations, where no minimum purchase is required.

In December, Alro opened another outlet location in Grand Rapids, Mich.

Jackson, Mich.-based Alro Steel, which operates more than 75 locations in 15 states recently celebrated 75 years in business.
