News Bamburi Cement’s profit hit by fuel, logistics and import prices

Bamburi Cement’s profit hit by fuel, logistics and import prices

Kenya: Bamburi Cement’s turnover rose by 3% year-on-year to US$168m in the first half of 2022 from US$164m in the same period of 2012. However, its profit before tax tumbled by 89% to US$1.03m from US$9.25m. The subsidiary of Switzerland-based Holcim attributed its rising turnover to mounting sales volumes and rising prices. However, it blamed its falling profit on “significant inflation of the fuel prices, logistics costs and imported clinker prices in both Kenya and Uganda.” It added that it expected the local market to improve after the Kenyan general election in August 2022 and growth in infrastructure spending in Uganda propped up by the oil industry.
