Jamaica: Senator Aubyn Hill, minister of industry and commerce, has reported an 8% month-on-month decline in cement production from January to August 2024, citing scheduled maintenance at Caribbean Cement Company as a partial cause. The maintenance took place from 12 August to 3 September 2024. Alongside the production drop, there was also a decrease in total domestic sales during the same period. Senator Hill has urged cement importers to utilise quotas issued by his Ministry to mitigate the industry shortfall.
