"Bolivia is projecting a cement deficit in the coming months of roughly 250,000 tons. Demand estimates suggest consumption could reach 2.8 million tons in 2011."
"Paraguay is in negotiations with Chile to import more cement"
"Reflecting the continued strong demand for cement in Brazil, driven in part by infrastructure spending, Votorantim announced an 11 percent increase in total revenues... Votorantim continues to invest heavily in Brazil, with 8 of its 11 cement plants being built there." www.cemweek.com, May-Jul 2011 With the rest of the world economies dreading a double-dip recession, Latin America seems to offer positive growth & projections, especially Brazil, host to World Cup 2014 and Olympic Games 2016. The construction markets in Latin America are expanding with housing and infrastructure projects. In Brazil, analysts are expecting an 8% increase in the market this year, compared with just over 5% elsewhere in the region. In Colombia, economic conditions continue to look good, and this has benefited residential and commercial construction activities, as well as the infrastructure sector. Peru is enjoying a prolonged stretch of very strong economic growth which is reflected in the expansion of cement demand to 8.48Mt in 2010, a 17.1% YoY rise. In the short term, cement consumption should enjoy YoY growth of 10-12% in 2011, long-term demand, however, will be supported by a substantial housing deficit, estimated at around 1.2m units at the start of 2011, and a large pipeline of infrastructure works, amounting to some US$56bn by 2020. Several new cement projects have been announced in Brazil, Colombia, Peru, Bolivia to Mexico. What are the status of these projects and how will it change the demand/supply dynamics when these projects are ready in the next couple of years? What are the opportunities for cement traders supplying the Latin market?
