Indocement opens new Palembang terminal

Indocement has opened a new cement terminal in Palembang, South Sumatra, Indonesia. The 0.5Mta terminal will improve the company’s distribution and logistics in the western part of the archipelago.

The cement producer has currently a market share of 14-15 per cent on Sumatra, which is the second-largest market in Indonesia after Java. The new terminal is expected to help raise this to 20-25 per cent.

Indocement owns seven further terminals in Indonesia – Semarang, Lombok, Tanjung Priok, Pontianak, Surabaya, Banyuwangi and Samarinda.
