The appreciating Real and the influx of cheaper Chinese steel continues to create challenges for the Brazilian steel industry. With domestic consumption of steel per capita at just 100g -120g per person, Brazil is expecting steel consumption and domestic production to grow but how can it return to being a competitive steel producer?  As the country starts to prepare for the World Cup and the Olympics, demand for steel is expected to increase by 45%. Take this opportunity to discover how the key players are positioning themselves in this market and how you can play a fundamental role in the growth of the Brazilian steel industry.
