Kerman Steel Company
Kerman Steel Industries Company is a Kerman Province producer of steel ingots and reinforcing bar, commonly referenced as Kerman Steel Company. Established in 1990 and reportedly privatized in 2012, it operates a reported production site on the Kerman–Bardsir road and maintains offices in Kerman and Tehran. Its reported melting, casting and rolling capacities indicate a regional long-steel manufacturing role, but current operating rates and output remain unverified.
Market position
Kerman Steel Industries Company is described as the first steel producer in southeastern Iran. Its reported configuration combines induction-melt ingot production, casting and rolling into rebar, positioning it as a regional long-steel manufacturer rather than solely a downstream distributor. Capacities include 220,000 tonnes per year for rebar and 440,000 tonnes per year for the Phase 2 steel-ingot unit, although current utilisation was not established.
Operations & footprint
Products and services
Kerman Steel Company is associated with steel manufacturing, steel bars, long steel products, and construction or industrial steel inputs. Its profile is linked to Kerman Province’s mining and metals base, local contractor demand, regional distribution, energy-intensive production, road logistics, and the broader materials ecosystem around Sirjan, Zarand, and Kerman’s industrial corridor.
Operations and assets
The Phase 1 hot-rolling mill was inaugurated in 2001 with reported annual capacity of 150,000 tonnes. The Phase 2 induction-melting steel-ingot unit was completed in 2015 and reported at 440,000 tonnes per year. The company also reports 220,000 tonnes per year of rebar capacity and annual casting-unit production of 420,000 tonnes; these figures should not be read as confirmed current output.
Geographic footprint
The production site is reported in Kerman Province, on the Kerman–Bardsir road near the Negar road. The company also has reported offices in Kerman and Tehran.
Competitors and peer set
The entity is distinct from Golgohar Iron and Steel Company Kerman (GISCO) and Mashiz Steel Company.

Commercial and investment relevance
In the Hormuz investment graph, Kerman Steel Company connects regional steel products, construction demand, mining-industrial supply chains, local contractor markets, logistics corridors, and energy-sensitive manufacturing in Kerman Province. It is useful for preliminary supplier mapping, provincial steel-market screening, and identifying where smaller manufacturers support the larger Gol Gohar-Sirjan materials ecosystem. Commercial use should verify legal identity, plant location, website, ownership, production status, product range, customer base, and counterparty reliability before reliance. For rebar buyers, the company offers a reported regional supply point for A2 and A3 bar in sizes 8–32, alongside steel ingots. For suppliers, its reported melting, casting and rolling configuration points to procurement needs spanning metallic inputs, industrial equipment and production services. Commercial engagement should validate available grades, standards, volumes and delivery capability.
Constraints, risk & compliance
Key risks and constraints
Unit capacities do not establish current production, utilisation, product availability or delivery performance. Ownership is described at a high level without a dated shareholder register, and the precise legal entity details should be confirmed before contracting.
