Construction of the Hodna Cement Company, a cement factory currently being built in Dehahna (M'sila) in Algeria, is expected to be finished in October 2016.
The factory will produce 2.2 million tonnes of cement/year and requires an investment of DZD 28 billion (€233.85 million/US$265.15 million) which will be financed by banks and the project's two partners, including a private Algerian operator and a South African group.
The factory should create 400 direct jobs and 3,600 indirect jobs.
