Local Market Note

London's mixed manufacturing base generates a bit of everything — stainless from food-processing equipment, copper and aluminum from electrical and automotive work, and structural steel from construction. With fewer yards than the GTA, a clean, well-sorted load stands out. It's worth calling two yards before selling a larger quantity.
