Shivam Cement, one of Nepal’s top-ranked cement producers, operates one of the most modern cement plants in the country at Hetauda. With a vision to continuously supply the domestic market with high-quality ordinary Portland cement (OPC), and therefore reducing Nepal’s reliance on regular cement imports from India, the company’s focus on quality and efficient production has enabled it to become a prominent player in Nepal’s cement sector.
