About the Scrap Market in Mardan
Mardan, the second-largest city in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, bases its scrap economy on sugar milling, tobacco processing, and a substantial military presence including the Mardan Cantonment. The Mardan Industrial Estate hosts ghee manufacturing, marble finishing, and small engineering workshops that contribute a diverse scrap stream. Agricultural mechanisation across the fertile Mardan plain—one of Pakistan's most productive farming areas—adds tractor and harvester parts to the supply.
Sugar-mill and tobacco-factory steel scrap averages PKR 88–105/kg, with seasonal peaks during the crushing season when mills clear accumulated maintenance waste. Cast-iron sugar rollers fetch PKR 55–70/kg, requiring specialised cutting that limits the number of interested buyers. Copper from rural electrification upgrades across the district trades at PKR 1,780–2,050/kg, and aluminium from greenhouse and cold-storage construction averages PKR 420–490/kg.
Sugar-mill procurement managers in Mardan should invite sealed bids from multiple dealers before each crushing season's scrap clearance, as this competitive process typically raises the realised price by 5–10 percent over negotiated single-buyer deals. The Nowshera Road and Takht Bhai Road areas host the most established scrap-trading operations. For agricultural sellers, combining scrap from multiple farms through a cooperative arrangement improves lot size and bargaining leverage.
