Earl S. Long, president and CEO, founded Southern Metal Products Company on April 1, 1977. While Earl had a more modest vision for the Company, Southern Metal Products has developed into one of the largest and most diversified steel fabricators in the region. From a one-man operation, Southern Metal Products has grown to be a premier fabricator of structural steel, priding itself on superior service, quality and value.Southern Metal Products believes that success comes from an effort to satisfy its customers' needs. This is why the Company does all of its own detail work in-house such as transferring architects' drawings into working, structural ones. As a structural steel fabricator, Southern Metal Products also supplies joist, metal deck, and miscellaneous steel such as stairs & handrail. The Company understands the importance of on-time deliveries and competitive pricing. In addition, it is flexible when approached with last-minute job revisions.The commitment to quality Southern Metal Products stems from Earl's philosophy to provide the highest quality product.
