The surge was partly thanks to the fact that Hoa Phat has entered a new market, Peru, and continued securing orders of large volume from major markets, such as Australia, Japan, Canada and ASEAN nations.
Last month, the steel maker also supplied 212,000 tonnes of hot-rolled coil (HRC) to the market and shipped 121,000 tonnes of steel billets overseas, mostly to China.
In the first four months of 2021, the company sold a total of 2.66 million tonnes of steel billets, construction steel and HRC. Total sales of construction steel reached 1.28 million tonnes, up 28 percent year-on-year; its export of finished products hit 220,000 tonnes, up 42 percent.
The firm aims to produce about 5 million tonnes of construction steel and steel billets, 2.7 million tonnes of HRC and 920,000 tonnes of steel pipe this year./.
