Company History
OVER 60 YEARS OF PUTTING PEOPLE FIRST
In 1955, a young steel salesman named John H. McConnell saw an opportunity for custom-processed steel. Borrowing $600 against his 1952 Oldsmobile, he bought his first load of steel and set up shop in Columbus, OH, founding Worthington Industries.
No matter the product or service, Worthington puts people first. Since its founding in 1955, Worthington has operated on a philosophy rooted in the Golden Rule, which serves as the basis for an unwavering commitment to the customer, supplier and shareholder, and as the Company's foundation for one of the strongest employee-employer partnerships in American industry.
In December 2023, Worthington Industries separated the Steel Processing business and created two standalone public companies; Worthington Enterprises and Worthington Steel.
