Liuzhou Steel Group has kicked off Q1 2025 with an impressive steel export performance, reporting a year-on-year increase of 33% in steel export sales volume and a surge of 57% in orders from January to March -- both hitting historic highs for the period.

This achievement builds on last year’s momentum, where Liuzhou Steel Group expanded into 10 new export markets and obtained certifications in 4 additional countries, resulting in a remarkable growth of 134% year on year in steel export.

Market diversification continues to enhance Liuzhou Steel Group’s prospects, maintaining stable relationships in traditional markets while acquiring new clients. “ASEAN remains our core export market, but we’ve made significant strides in Europe, securing multiple orders of 10,000 tons,” stated Wu Yujun, International Business Manager at Liuzhou Steel Group’s Sales Center.

Under the background of complex and volatile international environment, the robust start to exports is attributed to concerted efforts amid global market volatility. Last year, Liuzhou Steel Group organized two overseas promotional events to introduce “Liuzhou Steel Group-made” products globally. Additionally, key leaders of Liuzhou Steel Group led teams to Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, and other ASEAN nations to explore market opportunities.

“We’ve achieved new breakthroughs in Thailand and Singapore,” Wu Yujun remarked. The Sales Center employs precision marketing strategies that prioritize profitability while deepening existing client collaborations and expanding new customer bases for rebar, cold-rolled coils, and medium-thick plates. Lean production scheduling ensures timely deliveries. “Our order book now is already full until June,” Wu Yujun confirmed.
