Nigeria: Lafarge Africa says it plans to expand its Ashakacem Plant in Gombe State and Sagamu Plant in Ogun State. Upon completion, the cement plants will have a production capacity of 2Mt/yr and 3.5Mt/yr respectively. The company said that investments “reflect the Company’s strategic focus on supporting Nigeria’s infrastructural growth, improving product availability and delivering long-term value to shareholders.”

China-based Huaxin Cement completed its US$1bn acquisition of Lafarge Africa from Holcim in August 2025.
