For example, large industrial clients in the energy or mining sectors can negotiate better terms due to their substantial purchasing volumes. The Chilean energy market in 2024, with increased competition, has seen lower switching costs for some consumers, enhancing their leverage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCustomers with high price sensitivity, particularly in commoditized markets like basic forestry products, can exert considerable influence. The threat of backward integration also empowers customers; a large paper manufacturer, for instance, might consider its own timber sourcing if AntarChile's prices rise. This potential for self-sufficiency forces AntarChile to remain competitive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe availability of substitutes further strengthens customer bargaining power. In the energy sector, the rise of renewable alternatives like solar and wind power in 2024 directly challenges traditional fuel providers.
