Following the establishment of the Singapore office on September 1, 2017, Shanghai Metals Market has established a new overseas office in London in May 2021.

SHANGHAI, May 10 (SMM)—In order to further integrate with the international market, carry out global market research, and better serve overseas customers, Shanghai Metals Market has established a new overseas office in London, United Kingdom in May 2021. The London office is the second overseas establishment after SMM's Singapore office on September 1, 2017.
