When
Metal Sales Manufacturing Corporation opened its first manufacturing
facility in 1963, the metal building component industry was evolving.
The small plant in Louisville, Kentucky would serve the midwest and
southern regions with roll valley, terne valley, 5K gutter and galvanized
flat sheets in the burgeoning new industry of custom cut roofing and
siding products.
At the time, our goal was simple: to manufacture the best product and
to provide the best service at the best price. Well, times have changed
and Metal Sales has grown from that one-plant regional operation into
an international supplier of metal building materials with 20 facilities across the United States, and the largest sales
force in the industry. There have been some incredible changes, but
through it all, one thing has remained the same: our commitment to offer
the industry's best materials and finest service at the most reasonable
cost to our customers.

Metal Sales formula for success is simple. First, we choose quality
steel. Then, we employ cutting-edge technology and highly trained professionals
in every job area from purchasing, manufacturing and inventory to sales,
support services and delivery. Finally, we listen to our customers in
our quest to meet their every need.
Today,
nearly four decades after the opening of the first Metal Sales site,
we are doing a lot of things differently. More importantly, though,
is that we've held onto those original quality, value and customer service
principles that have made Metal Sales Manufacturing Corporation the
first choice for building professionals around the world.
