Prime Cement Ltd to prioritize innovation to serve the growing demand for cement in Rwanda

Cement is a primary product in construction and other infrastructure activities but those who rely on it in Rwanda have been struggling due to the supply deficit in the market. Prime Cement Ltd, a new player in the market, promises to change that with a $40-million factory in Musanze District in the Northern Province. The company officially inaugurated its factory on Tuesday, September 1, and announced the start of commercial production of cement. It is the second cement manufacturer in the country after Cimerwa, which has for a long time been struggling to meet market demand. Prime Cement’s General Manager, Rolf Anttila said on Tuesday that they were going to the market to bridge the cement supply gap.
