Ivory Coast: Morocco’s Ciments de l'Afrique (CIMAF) has started work on a 0.3Mt/yr cement plant at Bouake. The company has acquired land for the project and is currently preparing the necessary permits to begin construction, according to the African Press Agency.
CIMAF built its first 0.5Mt grinding plant in Abidjan in 2013. The production capacity at this unit was then increased to 1Mt/yr in 2016. In late 2017 the cement producer started building a second 1Mt/yr plant at San Pedro. The latest project at Bouake will be its third plant in the country.
