Armenia: The government has extended a temporary ban on imports of cement until the end of June 2024. The government says that the measure will help to re-establish competition between local cement producers and importers. NEWS.am has reported that Armenia produced 965,000t of cement during the first 10 months of 2023, up by 20% year-on-year. Meanwhile, in the first nine months of the year, cement imports grew by a factor of five, to 173,000t. Imports of clinker also rose, by 33% to 97,700t. The government attributed the growth of imports to rising cement demand and prices in Armenia during 2023.
