Current State of Local Steel & Implications for SA Manufacturing
March 18 @ 11:00 am - 2:00 pm
The recent announcement from ArcelorMittal South Africa (AMSA), a major steel producer, to close its local facilities has raised significant concerns across South Africa and the manufacturing sector. Key issues include local supply, pricing, quality, lead times, and employment. Strategic economic concerns also surround the loss of a vital commodity producer and the broader implications for other priority local sectors and value chains.
Join us in mid-March 2025 for an insightful webinar panel session where we will discuss the impact of AMSA’s closure and its potential repercussions for local manufacturing. The expert panel will include:
- Renai Moothilal, Executive Director of the National Association of Automotive Component and Allied Manufacturers (NAACAM)
- Tafadzwa Chibanguza, Chief Operations Officer (COO) of the Steel and Engineering Industries Federation of Southern Africa (SEIFSA)
- Philippa Rodseth, Executive Director of The Manufacturing Circle
