The Industrial Mandate Ltd Acquires Sonfast Corporation
Expanding Our Group. Strengthening Our Offer. Serving You Better.
The Industrial Mandate Ltd is pleased to announce the acquisition of Sonfast Corporation, an established industrial fastener and precision components supplier headquartered in South Carolina, USA.
This acquisition represents a meaningful step forward for the group — expanding our geographic reach into North America, deepening our collective technical capability, and creating new opportunities for customers on both sides of the Atlantic.
About Sonfast Corporation
Sonfast Corporation has built a strong and respected presence in the US industrial supply market. With a focus on fasteners and precision components, the business serves manufacturers, distributors, and industrial customers across South Carolina and its neighbouring States with a level of technical knowledge and service reliability that mirrors our own values as a group.
Sonfast joins a group of specialist companies that includes DP Fasteners Ltd, KJ Fasteners Ltd, JG Industrial Fastenings Ltd, North East Fasteners Ltd, and Asceros International Ltd — each operating with deep expertise in their respective product and market areas.
What This Means for Our Customers
For existing Sonfast customers, the immediate priority is continuity. The same team, the same contacts, and the same standard of service remain in place. What changes is the resource behind them.
As part of The Industrial Mandate Group, Sonfast customers gain access to a broader product portfolio — spanning industrial fasteners, precision cold drawn welded and seamless tube profiles, hot rolled tube, cold drawn bar profiles, and CNC machined components. Our materials capability extends across carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, Monel, nickel alloys, aluminium, and engineering plastics.
For existing Industrial Mandate customers, this acquisition opens a direct route into the North American market, supported by an established local team with strong customer relationships and proven operational capability.
“Sonfast’s integration into The Industrial Mandate Group has catapulted our performance as a go-to supplier for all things manufacturing to the next level. With growth capital, 30+ years of global industry experience, along with Sonfast’s deep industry reach, we’ve created a formidable approach to solving a majority of issues our customers and prospects face in an ever-changing business landscape. Sonfast can now offer deeper support from a technical, engineering, or application based persepctive.” – Paul Pappy – President of Sonfast Corporation
A Platform for What Comes Next
The Industrial Mandate Group is not standing still. This acquisition is part of a broader strategy to build a more capable, more connected, and more resilient industrial supply business — one that is equipped to support customers through an increasingly complex global supply chain environment.
We are investing in digital systems and operational infrastructure across the group, with a focus on smarter data, improved response times, and the kind of technical depth that allows us to solve sourcing challenges others cannot. Sonfast is a part of that ambition, and we are committed to integrating the business thoughtfully and with the long-term in mind.
We supply some of the world’s leading and we take the responsibility that comes with that seriously. The addition of Sonfast to the group strengthens our ability to deliver at that level, consistently.
