There's a lot more information you need to figure out before jumping into wholesale steel.

1) What kind of metals are you going to carry? General purpose steel, stainless (and all it's variations), exotic metals like titanium?

2) Do you have a market to sell the steel to? Many companies that may appear to be a good match for you won't want to change because the quality of metal will change from foundry to foundry - even those that are owned by the same company.

3) Do you have a location to warehouse your product? Many districts are making it hard for zoning changes and non-conforming use. You also have to consider the long term environmental factors once your up and running.

4) Search the archives and older posts in this forum. Though many don't apply to what you're looking to start, you can still glean useful information from them.
