Beira cement plant closure causes shortage

Print this page

Mozambique: The closure of the largest cement plant in Sofala has led to an acute cement shortage in Beira, according to local news reports. Local retailers are now relying on two plants in Dondo, 30km from Beira, but these reportedly cannot meet demand, leading to a rise in prices by some sellers. The government’s Industry and Commerce sector has denied the existence of a ‘cement crisis’.
