General Info

In 1974, Martin Marty Rosenthal founded M & G Industries as an Indent Container Facilitating business for the Wire Rope Industry. Marty branched out of Rhode Island in 1982 by acquiring ( the former ) Specialty Rope and Metal of Chicago. This new entity gave M&G its first Wire Rope Sales and Distribution Center, servicing the Mid-West. Then in 1986, he adopted this business model for the Eastern US, opening a warehouse in East Providence, RI. M&G was now able to supply Wholesale Wire Rope Products to two-thirds of the North American Continent. With Marty's passing in 1994, his wife Joan Rosenthal took over the leadership of M&G. Under Joan's direction, a new HQ Sales and Distribution Center was built in 1996, relocating to Bristol, RI a small town with a great shipbuilding history. As an industry outsider prior to her new role as President and Owner, Joan's success was seen as a surprise by most but her resolve has never faltered.
