Peru: UNACEM’s income rose by 8% year-on-year to US$295m in the first half of 2018 from US$272m in the same period in 2017. Its cement despatches fell slightly to 2.4Mt. The cement producer attributed the rising income to higher prices. However, its net profit fell by 48% to US$62.2m from US$119m due to less income from its subsidiaries.
