Al-Ahlia Cement Company

The cement industry is an ancient and important industry that contributes to the development of safe and healthy living spaces for humanity, as well as to the development of infrastructure for societies worldwide.

Construction of megaprojects such as airports, bridges, ports, dams, and water canals falls under this category. In addition, cement contributes to the economic stability of countries by providing jobs for citizens.

In order to remain competitive, giant cement brands such as Lafarge and Holcim have merged with smaller rivals. These conglomerates, such as Holcim Lafarge, are some of the largest cement and building material producers in the world.

Al-Ahlia Cement Company plays a crucial role in building Libya and implementing projects that benefit its citizens. Since its founding in 1961, the National Cement Company has grown to become one of the largest cement companies in the world. This includes the Al-Khums Cement Factory, the Gypsum Factory in Al Suwani, and cement silos in Al Shaab Port to receive imported cement and export any surplus.
