II. BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Steel is one of the basic building blocks of the modern world. Automobiles, appliances,

bridges, oil pipelines, and buildings, all are made with steel. While steel manufacturing has existed

for centuries, the process for making steel continues to evolve and iron and steel supplies is

emerging.

The Philippines has enormous mineral reserves, both metallic and nonmetallic. Aside from

gold and copper, the country has nearly 300 million metric tons of iron ore reserves. To encourage

more investment in metals mining, the Philippine government allowed 100% foreign ownership of

large-scale mines (subject to certain terms and conditions) in the hopes of attracting quality

operators and ensuring consistent metal output.

The iron and steel industry in the Philippines is critical to achieving inclusive economic

growth and long-term development. Infrastructure construction, power generation and distribution,

transportation facilities and vehicles, and manufacturing machinery and equipment all require

inputs from the industry, which are all critical for a country's long-term growth. Electronics,

appliance manufacturing, and shipbuilding, among other commercial and industrial enterprises,

use the industry's outputs.

The Philippine iron and steel industry aspires to be a majority producer of high-quality and

safe steel products for domestic users by 2030, contributing to the country's long-term development

by producing world-class products for industry and society. This is accomplished when the

industry can supply 70% of the required apparent steel consumption tonnage.
