Afghanistan: The National Development Corporation has announced that the production capacity of the Ghori Cement plants in Baghlan has increased to 700t/day from 350t/day previously, according to Bakhtar News Agency. This increase is reportedly due to attention from Islamic Emirate’s officials and the efforts of the National Development Corporation under the country’s new government.
Engineer Shafiullah Wahidi, director of Ghori Cement, revealed that 700 technical staff are working in three shifts to maintain production levels. Local residents and traders are urging further production increases to favour domestic products over foreign imports.
