06/01/2023 - InfraBuild, an Australian long products producer owned by Sanjeev Gupta’s GFG Alliance, has secured financing that will allow it to buy three U.S. wire rod operations also owned by GFG Alliance.
InfraBuild said in an announcement that it has closed on a US$350 million asset-backed term loan that will enable acquisition of Keystone Consolidated Industries, Johnstown Wire Technologies and GFG Alliance’s Georgetown, S.C., steel works.
