#1 About the company

Headquartered in Hyderabad, Hariom is a small-sized but backward integrated manufacturer of Mild Steel (MS) Pipes, Scaffoldings, Hot Rolled (HR) Strips, MS Billets, and sponge iron.

The company caters to diverse end-use industries like infrastructure, automotive, housing, agriculture, solar, fabrication, and engineering.

Currently, the manufacturing process is split between 2 plants: unit I in Mahabubnagar District, Telangana, and unit II in Anantapur District, Andhra Pradesh.

Unit II is dedicated to manufacturing sponge iron and is strategically located near Bellary, a hub for iron ore production in South India. Iron ore is mainly procured through the online bidding process.

Unit I converts sponge iron and iron scrap into finished steel products. The company’s USP lies in its wide range of product specifications and customisation.

The company has a strong network of dealers and distributors (around 200) in the southern and western regions of India. Sales to certain developers and contractors are also done directly via business-to-business (b2b).
