Founded in 2016, Fabrication Bazar deals with the manufacturing of pre-fabricated steel products and specializes in designing and installing techniques for the project. It took a pivot from asset-heavy to asset-lite model using technology post-covid.
As per reports, the industry is highly unorganized with many small fabricators as vendors on one side and large process-driven corporates as customers on the other side. With 300 million tonnes of projected steel production by 2030, India will be the second-largest steel producer globally with competitive costing.
