Johannessen Trading Company (JTC) is a reputable and long-standing brand in the steel distribution industry. With over 50 years of experience, JTC was founded by Ole Johannessen as a steel import trading operation. Over time, the company expanded its services to include local inventory, allowing them to better cater to the immediate requirements of their customers.

In the early years, JTC stored their inventories in public warehouses in the Los Angeles Harbor area, a common practice at the time due to the prevalence of cheap imports on the West Coast, particularly in merchant bars and light structurals. However, as the industry evolved with the rise of domestic mini mills and rail shipments from US mills, JTC relocated to its current facility in the City of Commerce in 1984. Johannessen Trading Company takes pride in its reliable and efficient distribution services, providing customers with top-quality steel products.

With a commitment to customer satisfaction and a proven track record, JTC is the go-to choice for steel distribution needs. Contact JTC today to experience their exceptional products and services
