Mexico: La Cooperativa Cruz Azul has regained control of its cement plant in Hidalgo after a five-year internal dispute ended in February 2026 with 33 arrests. The company said that the plant accounts for up to 40% of the company’s production capacity and that rehabilitation of the plant will be completed within three months.
The company is now building a new US$300m cement plant in Campeche, due for completion later in 2026. In addition, it has commissioned a new bagging plant in Puebla, and in Oaxaca it has launched a new kiln, a mill and a primary crusher.
