Abstract
Notwithstanding its status as the world''s largest steel producing country, China is one of the largest net steel importers in the world. In response to the World Trade Organisation challenges and the Chinese government''s policy measures to promote mergers and acquisitions and rationalisation, the big Chinese steel producers are currently undergoing major modernisation and product mix upgrades to compete with high-quality imports, and to be able to meet the demand for high-quality steel products as China develops itself as the ''world factory'' for a wide range of manufacturing industries. This case examines the forces that will help or hinder the transformation of China''s steel industry from a volume producer to a quality producer.
