Founded in 1953
Major Metals was established in 1953 by founder Henry Sollish. The brand promise of the company began with exceptional service and reliable delivery of scrap metals from local manufacturers
to dealers in the Detroit area. In 1964, Buddy Sollish became the second generation family owner to lead the business. Buddy expanded Major Metals capabilities by forging relationships with smelters, refiners
and mills.
In 1978, Major Metals opened operations at its current location on
East Davison street.
