Cement supply exceeds demand by half
ONLINE REPORTER
15 November 2016


COUNTRY’S installed cement production has crossed 8.0 million tonnes per year surpassing aggregate demand by half, the Minister for Industries, Trade and Investment said.

Minister Charles Mwijage said today that the country is currently cement sustainable and two more factories are expected to be constructed in the western zone. “We will export the excess capacity thus earning more foreign revenue,” Mr Mwijage said at a morning breakfast programme aired by Clouds FM.

The figure suggests that Tanzania’s installed cement capacity has surpassed that of Kenya which was projected to produce 8.1 million tonnes per annum by 2018.

This is according to analysts at the Standard Investment Bank (SIB), who made the projection in an East Africa Cement Sector report released in January 2016.

It comes even as cement consumption across East Africa is estimated to reach 17.5 million tonnes in 2019 due to a sustained boom in the construction and real estate sector. In 2014, consumption in the East African countries of Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda is estimated to have stood at 10.16 million tonnes.
