11 June 2025

Pakistan: Five companies have signalled interest in bidding for Attock Cement.

ANCAP fails to find buyer for Cementos del Plata

15 September 2023

Uruguay: The government has declared void its tender for offers for Cementos del Plata, the cement business of state-owned Administración Nacional de Combustibles, Alcohol y Portland (ANCAP). Montevideo Portal News has reported that no bids for the business were forthcoming before the end of the tender period on 12 September 2023. Cementos del Plata has debts of US$33m and made a loss of US$20m in 2022. It expects its losses to increase by 25% to US$25m in 2023. ANCAP president Alejandro Stipanicic said that the outcome marked the close of the latest stage in the efforts to rescue the business, but that “The search for a solution will not cease."

Stipanicic said “Perhaps in Uruguay we overestimated it. Perhaps in Uruguay we wanted to believe that we had something that was worth a lot, but the value of things is not set by those who own them, it is set by those who want something. That price is clearly less than zero." He added "Today is a sad day for ANCAP, because today the anguish of many good people working in the Portland cement business saw the illusion of having a clear and convincing future frustrated."
