CIMAF Cameroon to triple production capacity

CIMAF Cameroon has announced that it will triple its current 0.5Mta production capacity to 1.5Mta by 2018 on the back of domestic market growth.

"At the end of this extension, CIMAF Cameroon intends to consolidate its position as a major player in the local and sub-regional market," according to the company’s statement.

The project will put the Moroccan-owned cement producer on a par with Dangote, which currently owns a 1.5Mta grinding unit at Douala.
