Sabanci cement unit seeks acquisition opportunities

Turkey-based Sabanci Holding's cement business expects its sales to rise 10-15 per cent this year after posting a 16 per cent increase to TRL2.5bn (US$980m) in 2014, the cement unit's chief executive said.

Sabanci's cement arm is also looking for acquisition opportunities and could borrow up to US$1.5bn to fund an acquisition, Hakan Gurdal told Reuters in an interview.
