Alro processes and distributes metal products with next day delivery to over 25,000 customers in North America. From humble
beginnings in 1948, Alro Steel was incorporated in a small garage in Jackson, Michigan. The name "Al-Ro" was derived from the first
two letters from brothers Al & Robert Glick. Al began the company during a steel shortage in the 1940's which was due to the
military demands of World War II. Al found a niche matching up companies with steel needs to companies with excess steel. Today,
Alro has grown to over 60 locations in 12 states.
