For importers and exporters facing Brazil’s 25% tariff and shifting HRC premiums. Get actionable buy/sell signals. Download Report.

Navigating South America’s steel market demands precise, dual‑perspective intelligence. This weekly report is purpose‑built for procurement managers securing supply across Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Peru, and Colombia, and for export sales managers targeting the region’s most active buyers. It distills the latest tariff changes, anti‑dumping rulings, currency shifts, and port disruptions into clear, executable recommendations—no noise, just decision‑ready analysis.

For Procurement Managers, This Report Helps You Solve:

How to determine whether Chinese HRC remains competitively landed in Brazil after factoring in the 25% tariff and a strengthening Brazilian Real—and exactly how much time remains on the current duty window.
When to accelerate or pause CRC and coated steel orders given Brazil’s overlapping anti‑dumping duties and the newly expanded tariff coverage on grain‑oriented electrical steel and hot‑rolled pickled products.
How to manage payment and foreign exchange exposure in Argentina amid the 60‑day waiting period, SIRA license requirements, and the persistent gap between official and parallel exchange rates.

For Sales Managers, This Report Helps You Solve:

Which South American markets still offer viable margins for Chinese HRC and billet exports, and which are now structurally closed due to combined tariff and anti‑dumping barriers.
How to adjust pricing and contract terms for Argentine buyers to reflect aggressive import competition from China and Turkey, while safeguarding against currency and payment delays.
Where to redirect shipments originally destined for Colombia following the 35% tariff on non‑FTA steel imports, with alternative port and market routing assessed.

Core Value Proposition :
Brazil’s 25% tariff on nine steel categories has only 8 months remaining—and domestic HRC premiums over imports have already halved, creating a narrowing but still‑actionable procurement window for buyers and a time‑sensitive quoting opportunity for exporters.
