Sino Zimbabwe Cement is seeking land from Zimbabwe’s government to build an industrial park and housing on the outskirts of Gweru. In addition, it has approached the government to acquire 2500m2 in Gweru’s central business district for the construction of administrative offices.
“Sino Zimbabwe Cement has approached us seeking land for its various projects.They want land from Gweru City Council for the construction of its administration offices,” said Midlands Minister of State for Provincial Affairs, Cde Owen Ncube.
“They have also made a request for an offer letter of the farm they have been operating on for the past 23 years. They want to expand, but they can only do so if they have an offer letter. This will also enable them to bring in more investment,” he added.
“We have written to [Gweru City] council to consider their proposal and we have also engaged Lands, Agriculture and Rural Resettlement Minister, Chief Air Marshal Perrance Shiri (Rtd), to see how best he can assist them,” he said.
