Iscor
Iscor, the South African Iron and Steel Industrial Corporation, was a state-owned steel company founded in 1928 under J. B. M. Hertzog's government to build a national steel industry. Its works at Pretoria began production in 1934 and were followed by plants at Vanderbijlpark and Newcastle, and it provided protected employment for poor white workers. Privatised in 1989, it is now part of ArcelorMittal South Africa.
