Whi-Zim advances construction of a billion-dollar cement facility in Magunje within the Hurungwe district. The company anticipates project completion by August next year despite facing several operational challenges. Local residents will gain employment opportunities while cement prices will drop below ten dollars per fifty-kilogram bag. The development aligns with Zimbabwe's strategy to reduce cement imports by 2026. Community members express appreciation for President Mnangagwa's foreign investment attraction efforts.
Provincial leadership endorses the industrial project as a solution to unemployment and drug abuse problems. Justice Minister Ziyambi Ziyambi praised the initiative's potential to enhance national cement production capacity. ZANU PF Mashonaland West Provincial Chairperson Mary Mliswa-Chikoka emphasized the facility's contribution to infrastructure development plans. The investor drilled eleven boreholes to provide clean water access for the surrounding communities. Government officials pledge continued support for transformative economic ventures across rural areas.
