Fortescue's business model is deeply rooted in exploration, development, and the operation of large-scale iron ore projects. Through its extensive rail and port infrastructure, Fortescue efficiently transports high-quality ore from its mines to port, forging strong ties with steel producers worldwide, particularly in China, where demand for iron ore is immense due to the country's substantial infrastructure development and urbanization projects.
