Eritrea's Gedem Cement Factory Is Exporting Cement to Qatar
Gedem Cement Factory has been exporting part of its output to Qatar for the construction of stadiums for the World Cup football championship in 2022, according to a report by the Africa Energy Intelligence.
The report also said part of Asmara's electrical issues for the last few months — which have since been resolved — was partly attributed to the rise in demand from the factory.
Located near Massawa, the factory produces 32,000 bags (16,000 quintals) of cement per day and produces three types of cement namely, OPC, sulphur-resistant cement and pozzolan cement.
Currently, the factory employs over 300 nationals.
