Tunisia: Bizerte to raise output 50% in early 2014

Bizerte Cement management expects to increase its production in early 2014 by 50 per cent to reach 1.5Mta. It attributes the rise to its new production unit, which will enter service. 

The TUD141m new line, of which construction started in September 2011, will extend the life of the company by 35 years, according to Bizerte’s technical management.
