The project aims to produce 957,300 tons of cement per year as a substitute to cement importation. The plan is to increase the installed capacity of the cement plant from 1,600 tons/day to 3,000 tons/day. The cement plant will be refurbished and operated through a PPP scheme between a private sector partner and the state-owned cement plant. The largest of its type in Myanmar, the Kyangin Cement Factory has been a leading cement supplier to the domestic market for nearly 40 years, having made significant contribution to the development of domestic infrastructure in Myanmar.
