Ethiopia: Aliko Dangote will inaugurate east Africa's biggest cement plant in Ethiopia in the next three weeks, between 29 March 2015 and 2 April 2015.

Dangote Cement Ethiopia plc has built the state-of-the-art cement plant in West Shoa Zone, Adaberga woreda. Construction by China's Sinoma International Engineering commenced in March 2012 and was completed in March 2015. Products of the US$500m plant will be available locally from May 2015. The plant has 2.5Mt/yr of cement production capacity. Teshome Lemma, country general manager of Dangote Cement, said that the fully-automated plant is the biggest in the east African region. It will produce Ordinary Portland cement, Pozzolanic Portland cement and special cement for dam construction.

According to Lemma, all of the equipment was procured from Germany, Sweden and Italy. "The plant has state-of-the-art cement technology and it produces world class cement that can be sold any where in the world," said Lemma. "The plant is environmentally-friendly. There is no smoke coming out of the plant as the latest pollution controlling technology is applied."
