<title>Chemical Manufacturing - Agricultural</title>
<link>http://www.mindbranch.com/products/R3470-3154.html</link>
<description> <![CDATA[The US agricultural chemicals manufacturing industry includes about 700 companies with combined annual revenue of $30 billion. Large companies include divisions of Dow and DuPont and specialized producers such as FMC, Mosaic, and Terra Industries. Many smaller companies are involved in mixing purchased raw materials to produce customized fertilizer compounds with special characteristics.  The industry is highly concentrated. The eight largest producers of phosphate fertilizers generate 90 percent of segment revenue. The eight largest producers of nitrogen fertilizers generate 80 percent of segment revenue. In the pesticide segment, the eight largest producers generate 70 percent of revenue.  COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE  Demand for agricultural chemicals depends mainly on demand for various crops, which in turn depends on crop prices. The profitability of individual companies is linked to efficient operations and marketing. Big producers have large economies of scale in production. Smaller companies can compete effectively by making specialty chemicals or fertilizer mixtures for local markets. ]]></description>

<title>Chemicals Distributors</title>
<link>http://www.mindbranch.com/products/R3470-3157.html</link>
<description> <![CDATA[The US chemicals distribution industry includes about 10,000 companies with combined annual revenue of $70 billion. Major companies include Ashland Distribution, Brenntag, and Univar. The industry is fragmented: the largest 50 companies generate about 40 percent of revenue.  COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE  Chemical distribution is a cyclical business dependent on industrial demand. The profitability of individual companies depends on an efficient distribution system. Larger companies can offer more products and services. Local and regional distributors can compete effectively through superior service. The industry is capital-intensive: annual revenue per employee is about $800,000.  PRODUCTS, OPERATIONS & TECHNOLOGY  Major products are plastics materials, alkalis and chlorine, detergents and soaps, adhesives, and industrial gases. Plastics account for almost 25 percent of industry revenue.  In addition to selling and transporting chemicals, distributors offer other services including blending, packaging, technical training, and managing customer inventories. Waste removal is a particularly common service to offer. Many suppliers specialize in certain types of chemicals. ]]></description>

<description> <![CDATA[  Industry Risk Ratings Synopsis   This Industry Risk Ratings report from IBISWorld evaluates the inherent risks associated with the Inorganic Chemical Manufacturing in the US industry. Industry Risk is assumed to be 'the difficulty, or otherwise, of the business operating environment'.  The report looks at the operational risk associated with this industry. Three types of risk are recognized in our analysis. These are: risk arising from within the industry itself (structural risk), risks arising from the expected future performance of the industry (growth risk) and risk arising from forces external to the industry (external sensitivity risk).  This approach is new in that it analyses non-financial information surrounding each industry. Industries are scored on a 9-point scale, where 1 represents the lowest risk and 9 the highest. The Industry Risk score measures expected Industry Risk over the coming 12-18 months.   Industry Definition   This industry covers companies involved in the production of a variety of basic inorganic chemicals. ]]></description>

<title>Pest Control Services</title>
<link>http://www.mindbranch.com/products/R3470-3144.html</link>
<description> <![CDATA[About 10,000 companies provide residential, commercial and industrial pest control services in the US, with combined annual revenue of about $7 billion. Major companies include Terminix and Orkin (owned by Rollins). The The industry is fragmented: the 50 largest firms control less than 50 percent of the market. A typical pest control firm has 20 employees, one office location, and annual revenue close to $2 million.   COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE  Demand is driven by home sales and the occupancy of commercial and industrial properties. The profitability of individual companies depends on providing good service. Large companies benefit from brand recognition and economies of scale in advertising, franchising or backoffice operations. Small companies can compete successfully because large companies have no advantage in providing good service. Average annual revenue per employee is about $85,000.
