LONGVIEW — A steel preparation company is moving into the Kemira building on Third Avenue in Longview, which has been vacant for at least two years, Longview Community Development Director John Brickey told the city council Thursday night.
Merit Steel USA is in the early stages of setting up shop at 850 Third Ave. across from JH Kelly, Brickey reported.
The California-based company is looking to expand into the Northwest and is making Longview its regional sales office, Brickey told The Daily News.
Merit USA processes steel by slitting, leveling, cutting and ocean-preparing the product, according to the company’s website.
