News Mexican cement producers anticipate modest growth in 2024

Mexican cement producers anticipate modest growth in 2024

Mexico: Mexico's major cement producers predict modest growth in 2024 as some government infrastructure projects conclude and budget reductions take effect. These companies, including Cemex, Grupo Cementos and Holcim, have benefited from large-scale projects under President López Obrador but now face a tempered outlook.

General construction activity in Mexico grew in 2023, with a 15.6% increase driven by civil works, increasing the construction industry's GDP to US$94bn. However, with the completion of projects like the Mayan Train and anticipated budget cuts, growth expectations have cooled.

The National Cement Chamber forecasts a 2% rise in cement consumption in 2024, reaching 46.4Mt. Cement producers are adjusting strategies, with Cemex focusing on European markets and Holcim investing in plant expansions in Mexico, including a US$55m investment in its Macuspana plant in Tabasco.
