Applying stringent acquisition
criteria ensures that our Family of
Companies grows strategically,
sustainably, and profitably. Since
our IPO in 1994, Reliance has
completed 62 acquisitions. Today,
we are one company comprised of
over 70 distinct brands. Both the
individual and combined strengths
of our Family of Companies make
Reliance the industry leader.
Our success is built on safeguarding
our most important assets – our
employees – and, in turn, our
employees’ ability to successfully
execute our corporate strategy.
This was demonstrated in 2016,
when we reduced recordable safety
incidents by over 25% compared to
2015 and simultaneously achieved
record gross profit margins.
