Ranka Steels started in 1981. A modest shop with five employees, they started by dealing with stainless steel articles. In this new venture, they were led by the vision of Mr B L Ranka.
By the mid-eighties, Ranka began to test the waters as a trading organisation, by supplying to OEMs. At the turn of the decade, they embraced this opportunity more widely; the focus completely shifted to supplying.
As the world entered another new decade, a decisive change was in store for the steel industry in India. The winds of change were blowing away from small mills to large mills attached to a distributor. Small mills could no longer match the call for supplies due to out-of-date cold-rolling facilities and the time was ripe for Ranka Steels to take a new step as well. In 2004, Ranka Steel became a Service Centre.
Ranka Steels then started to cater to the needs of telecom and electronic industries and was focussed majorly on General Engineering and Panel Buildings.
An association with Tata Steels and JSW saw Ranka Steels meet this surge in demands. By moulding their skills to the need of the hour, by shifting the buying patterns of customers, Ranka Steels started a Pioneering trend, an award-winning trend; a movement that continues to flourish, even to this day, in developing economies.
By 2008-09, Ranka Steels delved deep into the Automobile industry.
From five employees in 1981, Ranka Steels currently has 250 employees on its rolls. Their offices that cater primarily to the southern region of India are located in Bangalore, Chennai, Hosur and Coimbatore and a new facility in Bommasandra, Bangalore was started in 2010. Now Ranka Steels has a total facility of 150,000 sq.ft. and a production capacity of 12,000 tonnes per month.
Ranka Steels is currently a 5,000 tonnes company and looking forward to grow 10000 tonne company in next 3 years.
