Raysut Cement Co aims to build on its recent acquisition of Sohar Cement by expanding into Africa and India. Raysut Cement's Chief Executive, Joey Gosh, signalled that further expansion for the Oman cement producer was planned in 2019.
Having acquired Sohar Cement Factory LLC for US$60m, Oman Cement is now looking outside of its domestic market. "We are looking at an aggressive expansion strategy from 2019 with a view to eventually expand our production to 20Mta," said Mr Gosh.
The indian and African markets are expected to be entered through acquisitions. Raysut Cement currently has a cement capacity of 6.4Mta.
