History

Amreli Steels was founded in 1972 by Abbas Akberali and is named after Amreli District, Gujarat, India from where their ancestors migrated to Pakistan. [4] [5]

As of 2013, Amreli's production capacity was estimated to be 150,000 tonnes, [1] which by 2017 had increased to 180,000 tonnes. [6] [7]

In 2018, Amreli established a new production facility in Dhabeji with a 400,000 tonnes capacity. [8] [9] A strategic goal of the firm has been to be the first Pakistani company to reach annual production of 1 million tonnes of rebar product. [10]
