Opening of New Office in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA

Sumitomo Corporation will establish a new office in the city of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania under Sumitomo Corporation of Americas., effective April 2026.

In the United States, amid the manufacturing renaissance and efforts to strengthen supply chain resilience, the trend toward “local production for local consumption” in steel products has been gaining further momentum. Across a wide range of industries—including automotive, construction, energy, and infrastructure—there is an increasing need for regionally integrated supply systems.

Under these business conditions, the Pittsburgh area has historically operated as a central hub of the U.S. steel industry and remains an important market where numerous steel manufacturers, processors, and related industrial companies are concentrated. For our company, the region holds strategic significance as we aim to deepen collaboration with partners throughout the U.S. steel value chain and contribute to the advancement of the steel industry.

With a view toward medium- to long-term growth in the U.S. market, we will strengthen our business platform as an integrated trading company by leveraging both our existing locations and the newly established Pittsburgh Office. Through this enhanced network, we aim to gain a holistic view of the U.S. market and respond effectively to the diverse needs of customers and industries.
