Government shuts down mining at East African Portland Cement

01 January 2025

Kenya: The Ministry of Mining has ordered the shut down all mining operations at East Africa Portland Cement Company due to a US$4m debt the company owes the government. The cement producer has also been accused of operating illegally since 2016, according to Citizen Digital.

Police have been sent to the company’s quarries to ensure they stop work.

Pharaon Investment looking to offload Attock stake

30 December 2024

Pakistan: Lebanon's Pharaon Investment Group Limited is reportedly considering the sale of its 84% stake in Attock Cement Pakistan, according to Pakistan Today. The holding company recently announced that it was re-evaluating its long-term strategic options in Pakistan, which also include Attock Petroleum, Attock Oil Company and Attock Refinery.

Attock Cement has been 'battered' by low demand in the Pakistani cement industry in recent years, following a period of expansion in the early 2010s. It produced 0.31Mt of cement in the first quarter of the 2025 financial year (to 30 September 2024), an 11% year-on-year fall from 0.35Mt a year earlier.
