About Us
Ricardo Centro
My beginnings in the steel sector go back to the year 1995 (almost 30 years ago). During this time I have been constantly training and learning. It’s been a while since I started working summers with my father in an iron warehouse (accounting and sales).
Later on and after finishing my studies I continued working in a small special steel warehouse (ABAL) taking care of small clients.
I immediately promoted and took over as manager of a small iron warehouse of the Ros Casares Group where I developed my career for 7 years until I joined a Turkish capital project, Prime Steel. There I worked as commercial director and later became a Partner.
We started with imports of tube, sheet metal and rebar to end up setting up two cold rolled tube manufacturing lines and a slitting machine for cutting sheet metal. After 7 years my concerns led me to Pacesa, a sandwich panel and mini-wave and trapezoidal sheet factory where I worked as manager of a group of 50 people.
The knowledge acquired in this period and my entrepreneurial desire led me to create TRADETECH METAL, where I hope to collaborate with you and add value to your business.
