Mobarakeh Steel Group in the year that was decorated by the Supreme Leader as “The Year of Boosting Production”;  Like the other production and economic centers of the country, overcame days full of ups and downs due to the restrictions caused by covid-19 and of course oppressive US sanctions;  but is proud to announce that at the end of the year with all these challenges, and with the tireless efforts of all managers and staff, the company has registered a very brilliant track record of performance in various fields – including numerous records in production and quality.

In this regard, Mobarakeh Steel Company, by participating in the strategic plans of the country, produced and supplied special products to the domestic market in order to sustainably meet the needs of other key and sensitive industries as a soldier and the guard at the forefront of the country’s industry – who felt the objectivity of the slogan of “Boosting Production” – by achieving the goals set out in Iran’s “Twenty-Year Vision Document”, we did our best to increase steel production to ensure the continuation of the growing production trend of factories and workshops as well as meet the basic needs of the automotive, home appliance and oil and gas industries to continue to inject as a powerful command center the spirit of hope and self-confidence in society.

In addition, Mobarakeh Steel Company in year 1399, based its efforts on this foundation to be able to proudly overcome the problems ahead through careful planning and management, and therefore, now we can boldly say, relying on the commitment and diligence of all its hard-working employees, all the capacities of this large industrial and economic group has been activated to serve Iran and Iranians, and despite the damage and risks of Covid-19, US secondary sanctions, external challenges, hardships and problems, it has succeeded in establishing a high position in the field of production, job creation and foreign exchange in comparison with other industries.

Statistics clearly prove this claim; achieving a stunning and unique production record of 7 million tons of steel in the main steel plant of Mobarakeh and 10 million tons of crude steel in Mobarakeh Steel Group is so remarkable and praiseworthy that it alone shows the realization of the slogan of “Boosting Production” In Mobarakeh Steel Company.  Likewise, other honors in the field of production – including the daily record of 140 heat cycles in the thin-strip casting mill – and production line record of tandem mill, the production of slabs with a thickness of 300 mm for the first time in the country along with numerous production records in the subsidiaries of Mobarakeh Steel Group, which in total indicates a 7.4 per cent increase in crude steel production compared to last year ,are just a glimpse of the achievements Mobarakeh Steel has had in “The Year of Boosting Production”, despite all the problems and shortages of raw materials, which was achieved with optimal management of existing resources and seriousness of employees in different departments.

It is a matter of pride that, in addition to these cases, this year, Mobarakeh Steel has committed itself to accept more social responsibilities, to stand beside the medical staff and the honorable people of Iran in the pandemic of Corona virus and spare no efforts to help the servants of the country in this field.  Free supply of much needed oxygen to the country’s hospitals and helping to equip the items needed by hospitals are only a small part of such humanitarian measures that has been on our agenda as an organizational commitment since the beginning of this epidemic.

Mobarakeh Steel is now by far the top supporter of pandemic victims and the country’s health front.

On the eve of 1400 and the beginning of the new Iranian century, I hope for economic prosperity and increasing development of the country, while congratulations to all the dear employees of Mobarakeh Steel Group and all those who work in the serious field of industry in our country, I wish you the blessing of the days of the holy month of Sha’ban, and hope the greater nation of Iran to get rid of the deadly corona disease so that by drawing a clearer vision of Iran’s future, and strategy of resistance economy, we would take big steps in the field of production and service to the dear Islamic homeland and the proud people of our country.
