Zimbabwe hopes to end imports with new cement plant

11 July 2025

Zimbabwe: The government is ‘optimistic’ that Zimbabwe will become self-sufficient in cement by early 2026, according to The Herald newspaper. The Industry and Commerce Minister Mangaliso Ndlovu toured the country’s Chegutu cement plant, currently under construction, where he was upbeat about Zimbabwe’s cement manufacturing capabilities.

Ndlovu said “This project is addressing critical cement shortages that we are experiencing, leading to imports from neighbouring countries. We are happy that by the beginning of 2026, this plant will start producing cement, meaning that more than likely there will be no need to import.”

The plant is owned by China-based Shuntal Investment, and administration manager Yan Bo confirmed it had invested US$70m in the project. The plant will produce 0.8Mt/yr of cement. The project currently employs 300 local people, with total employment across Shuntal’s Zimbabwe operations expected to reach 4000.
