HISTORY
Harry H. Samrick founded Mill Steel in 1959 with little more than a phone, a basement desk and the idea that superior service and good business ethics could lead to success.
The culture that Harry created has made Mill Steel one of the premier flat-rolled and coated steel suppliers in North America. Now Harry’s son, David S. Samrick (CEO & Chairman), and granddaughter, Pam Heglund (President), alongside fellow partners – Carl Quenneville (SVP & CCO), Joe Poot (SVP Purchasing), Rob Vella (VP Operations), and Marc Rabitoy (CFO) – continue to lead Mill Steel with steadfast dedication to superior quality, delivery, and performance. Mill Steel has repeatedly been named one of the 101 Best and Brightest Companies to Work For by the Michigan Business & Professional Association (MBPA). In addition, the MBPA has presented Mill Steel with multiple Elite Awards for its outstanding people-first culture. The company continues to grow by consistently operating with integrity, and putting its customers and associates first.
