News Chihuahua to sell Soboce stake to Peruvian group

Chihuahua to sell Soboce stake to Peruvian group

Bolivia/Peru: The Mexican cement maker Grupo Cementos de Chihuahua (GCC) has announced that it has finalised the sale of its 47% stake in Bolivian peer Sociedad Boliviana de Cementos (Soboce) to a unit of a major Peruvian conglomerate. GCC said that its stake in Bolivia's top cement maker would go to Consorcio Cementero del Sur, S.A., a subsidiary of the agroindustrial Grupo Gloria. It gave no details regarding the value of the deal.

"Proceeds from the transaction will be used primarily for debt reduction, in line with the company's goal of improving its financial profile and strengthening its core businesses in the US and Mexico," said GCC in a statement.

Previously, in April 2011, a judge in Bolivia ordered a freeze on assets held by Soboce, 53% of which is owned by a group controlled by Samuel Doria Medina, who is a political rival of the country's President Evo Morales.
