Raysut Cement Company (RCC), Oman's largest cement manufacturer held a groundbreaking ceremony triggering the start of the construction of its new $30 million grinding unit in Duqm in Oman.

The development of Duqm plant, a strategic expansion for the Muscat Stock Market-listed RCC will complement the company's leadership in cement manufacturing adding another 1 million tonnes to the group output, taking the total to 7.4 million tonnes per annum.

“The groundbreaking is a milestone for RCC on two counts. It will contribute significantly to our ambitious capacity expansion targets of 10 million tonnes by 2022, expected to be further scaled up to 22 million tonnes in the near future. Second, it will help us generate more employment opportunities aiding our efforts to enhance social and economic progress in Oman,” said Group CEO,
