At the event, Krakatau POSCO invited Intisumber CEO Edward and executives, with President Bumsu Jung and Purchasing and Marketing Deputy Director Kyung-nam Kim in attendance to present an appreciation plaque.
Established in 1978, Intisumber is Indonesia’s largest distributor, with processing centers and warehouses in critical regions. Krakatau POSCO has built a strategic partnership with Intisumber since starting operations in 2013, selling hot-rolled steels and plate steels. Notably, the 1 million tons of cumulative sales achieved today is equivalent to stacking plate products 1500mm wide and 1000mm long to the height of Mount Everest, the world’s tallest peak.
President Bumsu Jung said, “It has been an honor to grow together with Intisumber for 12 long years since our first connection in 2013. There have been many challenges, but we achieved 1 million tons in cumulative sales because you believed in us and stayed with us. Krakatau POSCO will continue to provide unwavering support for Intisumber’s growth as Indonesia’s largest distributor.”
Intisumber CEO Edward stated, “We are grateful to Krakatau POSCO ‘s employees for consistently supplying the highest-quality products on time. We hope to continue cooperating to contribute to developing Indonesia’s steel industry and steadily increase our transaction volume to 2 million, 3 million tons, and beyond.”
