Traffic light systems and cement

Chilanga Cement appeared to be engaged in production and pricing strategies that made Zambian export cement less competitive compared with the cement from its plant in Mbeya, (United Republic of Tanzania).

For a mixture of 4 1 cement to water, it could be said that the ratio of cement to water is 4 1, that there is 4 times as much cement as water, or that there is a quarter (1 4) as much water as cement..

It was further alleged that Chilanga Cement had been suppressing the local supply of cement in order to raise prices.

The Commission advocated increased imports of cement, notably from Zimbabwe (owing to lower logistical costs compared with South Africa), in order to curb this likely abuse of market power by Chilanga Cement.

Between 2002 and 2003, Chilanga Cement engaged in activities that appeared to be preventing, restricting and distorting the production and marketing of cement from Zambia to the traditional export markets for Zambian cement, which it now controlled in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Burundi and Rwanda (the Great Lakes Region).

The Commission also advocated that the Government revisit the tariff structure of cement in order to make the landed price of imported cement from Zimbabwe more competitive than it was at the time.

Of course, technological advances, like hydraulic fracturing ( fracking ) in the shale gas industry, could increase supply and therefore lower prices.

The export pricing also appeared to make the landed price of Zambian cement higher.
