Peru: UNACEM has purchased Cementos Portland (Cempor) for US$28m. It acquired a full stake in the company from Chile's Cementos Bío Bío and Brazil’s Votorantim Cimentos, according to Semana Económica magazine. Cementos Bío Bío and Votorantim originally planned to build a US$150m cement plant in Lima. However, this was delayed by a legal battle over environmental issues initiated by Unacem. The Peruvian cement producer operates an integrated plant in Lima.
