Carthage’s turnover increase fourfold in first six months

Turnover by Tunisia’s newest cement producer, Carthage Cement, amounted to TND101,836m (US$59m), up 419 per cent compared to the same period of last year.

Clinker and cement sales totalled TND19.262 and TND64,060, respectively during the six months to the end of June 2014.

Readymix concrete activities increased by 25 per cent YoY. Aggregate sales, however, fell 28 per cent due to the absence of infrastructure public works contracts.
