The Cohen brothers, Mose and Phil Cohen, began scrap operations in 1924 using a horse-drawn cart to collect scrap metal, paper, and rags. Four generations later Cohen Brothers, Inc. has evolved into one of the largest ferrous and non-ferrous scrap processing companies in the United States . We currently operate 19 facilities and process in excess of 1 million tons annually. Although we have expanded, Cohen Brothers remains a family owned business, working under the same values the company was founded on.
