Clear acquisition strategy to support growth of higher value-add business 01
9
• External growth with focus on targets which fulfill the following
requirements:
• Companies which support our strategy of increasing higher value-
add business through corresponding processing facilities
preferably supported by state of the art systems and experienced
sales force
• Companies with higher value-add products as long as they can
be integrated in our network. Regional-wise the USA would be
preferred because of better growth perspective
• In the absence of significant scale effects caused by
overcapacities other targets would be only of interest if they are a
real bargain
• Internal growth will be realized especially in the more attractive
US-market

The webshop and increasing access to the stocks of our suppliers are the first steps
to change the current business model 01
Conventional steel distribution supply
chain highly inefficient:
• Disconnected flow of information
• Multiple stocking, too many picks
• Unsteady delivery from mills
• Apply portals or EDI-technology to facilitate
efficient direct access to suppliers‘ floor
stocks also to avoid multiple stocking
• Gaining new customers
• Realization of significant savings per order
