World Cement wants to know what your favourite cover is from the past two years (January 2013 – December 2014)!
Rather than combining their operations in Spain as originally announced, Cemex will acquire Holcim’s Gador cement plant and Yeles grinding facility and Holcim will retain its remaining assets in the country.
Holcim has announced that it has not yet received the final installment of compensation from Corporación Socialista del Cemento S.A. relating to the nationalisation of Holcim Venezuela in 2008.
New faces proposed for election, while plans for a new Chairman are in hand.
