Liberty Galati SA is Romania's sole integrated flat-steel producer β a former ArcelorMittal (previously Sidex) plant on the Danube in Galati, acquired by Sanjeev Gupta's GFG Alliance / Liberty Steel Group in 2019.
No GLEIF LEI record found for GFG Alliance Ltd or Liberty Steel Group under any searched name variant (checked 2026-09-07); Liberty Galati SA's own LEI (787200JD930MJSDKAA69) is now LAPSED and reports no parent on file. No dossier exists in this corpus for GFG Alliance or Liberty Steel Group, so parent_slug is not set β liberty-ostrava is a former SIBLING plant under the same prior GFG ownership, not a parent, and was itself sold to an unrelated Czech buyer in Oct-2025 (see that dossier). Ownership per Global Energy Monitor wiki company-history entry.
Named counterparties identified by open-source research and written only where a primary source states the relationship β never inferred from sector or co-mention. 2 suppliers, 2 customer-side. This is a partial view: it covers the relationships we could evidence, not the company's full supply base.
Tolling arrangement reported Sep 2026: Glencore supplies raw-material feedstock and retains ownership of both feedstock and finished heavy plate/hot-rolled-coil/pre-painted steel; Liberty Galati provides rolling/processing services only for a fee (upstream blast-furnace/steelmaking stays idle).
Same tolling arrangement as the Glencore row: KMC supplies feedstock via its Romanian subsidiary Ripen and retains ownership of output; Liberty Galati tolls/processes only.
Scope. Absence of a counterparty here is not evidence that none exists β most commercial sourcing is confidential and never becomes public. Rows without a share figure mean no share was disclosed, not that the relationship is small.
Every exposure is read as a buyer dependency; the top 3 are its binding chokepoints.
As a buyer, policy pressure across its consumed materials is flat.
Descriptive trend in official policy actions on this companyβs materials β a policy-pressure trend, not a price or trading signal. No forward probability is implied. Direction is measured on actions we have discovered, and discovery lags events: where the recent window is too thin to support a calm reading, the row says coverage-limited instead of easing.
π·π΄ RO accounts for 100% of severity-weighted pressure.
