Who We Are

From its roots as a trading office back in 2001, Everison International Group Inc. was created in Canada. In 2005, we opened our doors to North America from our office in Toronto – which also oversees the operations of our international locations. Over the years, Everison International Group Inc. has grown from dealing mostly in scrap metal and steel pipes, to a fully-fledged trading company that deals with different types of commodities from all over the world.

Everison International Group Inc. continues its importing, exporting, and trading business as we continue our unprecedented growth in the scrap, steel, pipe, and trading industries in North America, Europe, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and beyond. We are now looking to hire more dynamic employees to join our team.
