On September 8, 2025, President Nguema of Gabon announced a nationwide ban on the import of clinker from January 1, 2027. Gabon has lost its own clinker production capacity since 2014, and imported clinker has swallowed up a large amount of foreign exchange. The President called for the resumption of competitive local clinker production within one year, leaving a 365-day window for investors. Morocco, Turkey, Nigeria and other enterprises have relevant investment plans. The entry into force of the ban is conducive to stabilizing public works, saving foreign exchange and creating jobs, and whether the rotary kiln can be restarted in the next 15 months has attracted much attention.
