11/02/2023
Boyd Metals, a metals producer, plans to expand its operation at the Port of Little Rock, Arkansas. The project is expected to create 20 jobs.

The investment will include an additional 40,500-square-feet for processing equipment and increased inventory.

“Boyd Metals, a subsidiary of Russel Metals, is excited to grow with our customers,” said Brian Newman, President of Boyd Metals, Inc. “Boyd Metals opened our Little Rock, Arkansas location in 2006 and expanding our footprint shows a commitment to both our employees and our customer base. We are happy to be a staple in the Little Rock community and this investment enhances our reputation as the leading metal supplier in the region. Again, thank you to the Boyd family and our loyal customers.”

Boyd Metals is a full-line steel service center, offering an extensive inventory of carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, fiberglass, red metal, PVF, and other industrial products. The company also offers in-house processing services, including laser cutting, sawing, shearing, flame cutting, plasma cutting, bar polishing, and sheet bending.

"Boyd Metals is an Arkansas success story. With such excellence in how they conduct business, it’s no surprise to see their growth and success” noted Clint O'Neal, executive director of the Arkansas Economic Development Commission (AEDC). "We’re proud to see this Arkansas-based company continuing to expand in our state at the Port of Little Rock."

“Boyd Metals and its parent company evaluated multiple locations for this investment and selected Little Rock, which is a strong complement to the regional workforce in the Little Rock area,” added Rajesh Chokhani, 2023 Chairman of the Little Rock Regional Chamber. “We are grateful they selected Little Rock and look forward to a continued partnership.”
