Benin: The Council of Ministers plans to commission a feasibility study from a third party to look into building a 5000t/day clinker plant with a cement production capacity of 1.6Mt/yr. The government wants to preserve local limestone deposits through the creation of a national integrated cement plant that could supply the market, according to La Nouvelle Tribune newspaper. Cement sales increased by 30% in the country from 2016 to 2021 and this trend is expected to continue. The government hopes to build a new cement plant by 2026.
