Chad: The Group Cement of Africa (CIMAF) plans to raise the production capacity of its Chad cement plant from 0.5Mt/yr to 0.7Mt/yr. Anas Sefrioui, President of CIMAF, conveyed this intention to Chad's President Mahamat Idriss Deby Itno, with the intention to meet market demands, reduce costs and create jobs. Sefrioui also announced that the official price of cement bags from the plant will be revised to alleviate public costs. The CIMAF cement plant in Lamadji, north of N'Djamena, commenced operations in June 2017.
