In a recent announcement, Caribbean Cement Company Limited (Carib Cement) revealed it has taken significant steps to bolster inventory replenishment across its extensive network of depots. Customers can look forward to a noticeable improvement in cement deliveries in the coming week.
This proactive approach follows a notable shortage of cement that has impacted the construction sector across the island. In a statement released on Wednesday, Carib Cement emphasized its commitment to addressing supply challenges and meeting the needs of its clients.
The company reported that it is currently operating at maximum production capacity and has successfully navigated a series of operational hurdles, including disruptions caused by recent adverse weather. “We are pleased to inform our customers and the wider public that enhancements in cement delivery are on the horizon,” the statement read. Carib Cement expressed its dedication to ensuring a dependable supply of products while enhancing overall service quality.
“We truly appreciate the patience and understanding shown by our customers during this challenging period,” the company added, reiterating its commitment to improving customer satisfaction.
Earlier in September, Carib Cement acknowledged its inability to keep up with the local market demand but assured stakeholders that corrective measures were being implemented. By late September, Industry Minister Aubyn Hill confirmed that the cement shortage had been effectively addressed, citing assurances from Carib Cement regarding the availability of sufficient supplies for customers.
With these developments, Carib Cement aims to restore confidence in its supply chain and continue supporting the vital construction industry throughout the Caribbean.
