INC distributors waiting up to a month for orders

Paraguay: Distributors of cement supplied by Industria Nacional del Cemento (INC) are reportedly waiting up to a month for their orders to be delivered, even if they pay in advance. The state-run cement company’s two plants are delivering around 40,000 bags/day despite a production capacity of up to 100,000 bags/day, according the ABC Color newspaper. INC inaugurated a new mill at its Villeta cement grinding plant in 2018 and has invested US$80m in its last set of upgrade projects.
