MISSION OF GREENWICH METALS

THE HISTORY OF GREENWICH METALS
Founded in 1992, Greenwich Metals (GMI) has a long history of sourcing and supplying industrial metals to manufacturing companies globally. The company was revitalized in 2018 as the founder sold the company to a group of investors led by several metals trading executives. Collectively, the group holds over 100 years of trading experience. Under this new leadership, the company has been refinanced, rebranded, and diversified.
In 2019, GMI acquired Ferromet AB, a Swedish ferrous marketing company founded in 1994. GMI Commodities SA was established in Geneva in 2022, followed by GMI Commodities LatAm in Lima in 2024. In 2025, GMI Metal (Shanghai) Co. was formed to support expansion of GMI's commercial presence in Asia.
In 2026, Greenwich Metals and Element Alpha came together under GMEA Commodities, a newly formed parent company that wholly owns both businesses. This merger combines energy and metals trading together to create a diverse commodities trading platform. Greenwich Metals continues to operate under its established brand as a GMEA Commodities company.
Currently the GMI group is most actively involved in ferrous and non-ferrous metals through four major commodity groupings; bulk commodities including raw materials, refined base metals, scrap metals, and ferroalloys/steel. GMI is currently trading more than 100 uniquely sourced products and continues to add and seek opportunities that complement our existing portfolio.
