Norfolk Iron & Metal Co., a full-line steel service center headquartered in Norfolk, Neb., announced the creation of NIM Group which will be the parent identity for its brands: Norfolk Iron and Metal, Metalwest and Cd’A Metals
In December 2018, Norfolk Iron acquired Metalwest, a processor and distributor of carbon and nonferrous flat-rolled metal products with eight U.S. locations. In December 2020, Norfolk Iron acquired Cd’A Metals, a full-line service center and supplier with three locations serving the inland Northwest.
The creation of the new parent identity provides a structure that will support continued growth of existing geographies as well as future acquisitions, the company said. The group will be led by Richard Robinson as chairman and CEO.
“We are excited to have an identity that encompasses our family of companies, current and future,” said Arnie Robinson, NIM Group president and COO. “With NIM Group providing many of the corporate functions for our operating brands, our commercial teams can focus on expanding our product and geographic reach in support of future growth.”
The NIM Group leadership team includes:
- Richard Robinson, chairman & CEO
- Arnie Robinson, president & COO
- Jeff Robinson, executive vice president & CCO
- Brad Noel, executive vice president & CFO
- Mike Bamsey, executive vice president
