Cemex to invest US$1.3bn in 2022

16 February 2022

Mexico: Cemex says that it will invest a total of US$1.3bn in its business in 2022. US$600m will go towards strategic growth, according to the company.

Chief executive officer Fernando Gondzález said "Overall in 2022, we anticipate a favourable environment with more moderate volume growth in most markets and solid pricing dynamics reflecting high capacity utilisation and input cost iteration. Finally, our objective is to recover margins in line with our goal of operational resilience with our pricing strategy.” He continued "Today, we are very prepared to handle the inflationary change. We have reflected cost pressures in our regular 2022 price announcements scheduled for January and April. We are also assuming that inflation is not transitory and are prepared to respond quickly to changes in the environment."

27 January 2022

Mexico/US: GCC plans to invest US$500m over the next three years to the end of 2024 on increasing its production capacity and strengthening its logistics and distribution network in North America. New projects in development include the expansion of a cement plant, debottlenecking at the integrated Samalayuca plant in Mexico, the construction of two new terminals and other projects to improve the company’s operational efficiency and its social and environmental strategy. The cement producer reported strong sales in 2021 and it expects even better results in 2022 and 2023, particularly in the US, due to the effect of the US infrastructure bill.

Notably GCC reported that both the kilns at its Odessa plant in Texas were running at full capacity in 2021 and an additional kiln at a plant in Chihuahua, Mexico was complimenting supply to the US state. High demand was also recorded in Montana.
