has been the second largest cement manufacturer
in Zambia and continues to employ more than 700
workers. The quality of output at the ZPC abides by
all industry standards and is ISO 9001:2008 certifi-
cated since 2014.
Zambezi Portland Cement’s establishment brought
much needed competition to the cement manufac-
turing industry and has assured Zambians that the
price of cement will now become increasingly mar-
ket driven. Zambezi Portland Cement will further in-
fluence the industry through its competitive pricing.
Zambian mining and construction companies can
now source high-quality cement domestically as
opposed to having to import it from South Africa.
This offers their clients the ability to significantly
cut costs and also handle orders quickly and keep
delivery times low.
The quality of cement Zambezi Portland Cement
manufactures is ideal for constructions and build-
ing assignments. Its production conforms with the
local and international standards of EN-196 and
EN-197.
In 2014, there was streamlined development in
Portland Cement Factory Zambia as it was suc-
cessful in increasing its total production of cement
by 200 tonnes per day. The previous track offered
a production of 1,100 tonnes per day, whereas
the new output unit had been increased to 1,300
tonnes per day. Along with the aforesaid develop-
ments, the factory also volunteered in offering ce-
ment for the Ndola Housing Project in 2014.
