Competitive Landscape for BHP Billiton Limited
Demand comes largely from the manufacturers of durable goods like motor vehicles, machinery, containers, and construction steel.

Small companies can compete by operating efficient local mini-mills or producing specialty products. The industry is capital-intensive: average annual revenue per worker is close to $300,000.
