Mozambique, the launching ceremony of Dondo 3000t/d clinker production line project of Huaxin Mozambique Cement Company was held in Dondo Plant. The expansion and transformation will greatly increase Huaxin's market competitiveness in Mozambique. At the launching
ceremony
of Dondo 3000t/d clinker production line project, Fernando Barreto, acting national general manager of Huaxin Mozambique, introduced the planning, advantages and development prospects of the project in detail. He said that this is an important measure for Huaxin to look forward to Mozambique's economic development in the long run and firmly implement its continued investment. Cecilia Chamutota, Secretary of State of Sofala Province, Mozambique, delivered an enthusiastic speech. He said Cimentos de Mo çambique was a respected company and the pride of the country. The project can promote the economic construction of the region, create new employment opportunities, and effectively promote the healthy development of the local building materials industry. The government will actively coordinate all kinds of resources, fully support the project construction, and hope that the project will be put into operation as soon as possible. In December 2023
, Huaxin officially took over Cimentos de Mo çambique, which owns five cement plants, one of which is the Dondo plant. Founded in 1967, the plant has a cement grinding capacity of 750,000 tons and is the largest cement plant in central Mozambique. There is no cement clinker production line in the central region of Mozambique. With the construction of a clinker production line with a daily output of 3,000 tons and the increase of cement grinding capacity to 1.3 million tons in Dondo Plant, the market competitiveness of Dondo Plant and even Huaxin in Mozambique will be greatly enhanced, and the situation of relying on outsourcing of clinker in the region will be completely changed. The project is scheduled to start in November 2024 and put into operation by the end of 2025. Manuel Chaparica, mayor of Dondo
, Sofala province, Maria Roque, mayor of Beira, Cust Custódia Paunde, director of the Mozambican Investment Promotion Agency, Soberano, regional head of the National Port and Railway Administration, As well as Dondo factory suppliers, customers and media representatives attended the ceremony.
