Zimbabwe: President Mugabe opens PPC cement grinding plant in Harare

PPC's US$85m cement 0.7Mta grinding plant at Msasa, Harare, has been officially opened by President Robert Mugabe. The plant is PPC’s third production site in the country.

The facility features a cement ball mill with dynamic separator and road and rail off-loading facilities. This is in positioning PPC to meet local demand, as well as boost the country’s ability to export to the region.

The PPC's collective capacity now stands at 1.4Mta, allowing the firm to export further to its neighbours and reducing Zimbabwe's reliance on imports.
