PPC Zimbabwe margins surge on plant efficiency gains
CEMENT maker PPC Zimbabwe recorded a 3% increase in cement sales volumes in the five months to August 2026, driven by firm demand across the industrial and retail markets. The strong performance comes as PPC’s plant performance improvement plan continues to deliver results, with the company reporting greater clinker self-sufficiency and improved operational efficiency at its Colleen Bawn plant. “PPC Zimbabwe delivered another strong performance with EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and armotisation) margin expanding to 34,2% from 19,1% in the comparable period,” PPC said in its operating update for the five months ended August 31, 2026.
