what u think, r they serious bout this projekt?

The fact that there are two factories increases the chances.


Horn cement will probably get it done first as its starting from a clean sheet and has a lot less stakeholders to deal with and they're doing it in phases. It also helps they've contracted a 100 year Italian company to construct the plant.

MSG Group of Companies through its DIFC Dubai based subsidiary company Horn Holding Group ltd (HHG) has signed an agreement with Bedeschi SPA for the construction of phase 1 of a full cement plant which will take about 18 months with installed production capacity of 700,000 tonnes of cement per annum. The entire full plant project shall take 3 years to complete with a production capacity of 3300 tonnes of cement and 3000 tonnes of clinker per day. The agreement is as a result of negotiations lasting over year led by Bergs & More a leading law, tax and financial advisory firm with well established presence in Europe, Middle East and Africa.

The Phase 1 of the project is expected to translate to employment opportunities for locals during both the construction phase as well as once the factory comes to life. An estimate of 300 Somalilanders are expected to benefit directly from this project by way of employment and another 200 plus citizens to benefit indirectly. To the region the project will spare economic growth through opening infrastructural development as well as trading opportunities for both wholesale and retail businesses.

Its proximity to the Berbera port, would be key to the export of the cement which will, in the long run, lower shipping costs to Berbera since the freight companies would have a range of cement products to ship outbound.

MSG Group partner with Tianjin Cement to build Somaliland plant​

Somaliland infrastructure industry has received a major boost after the MSG Group of Companies and Tianjin Cement Industry Design and Research institute (Sinoma) signed an agreement to establish an integrated cement plant in the port city of Berbera.

The integrated cement plant aims to meet the growing demand for cement in Somaliland and the neighbouring region due to the expansion of the construction industry. Strategically located in Berbera, a major port on the Gulf of Aden, the plant will play a crucial role in meeting cement demand in the Horn of Africa region, where Berbera’s economic development has been positively influenced by the expansion of port services under DP World.

As part of its diversification plan, MSG Group will lead the development of the cement manufacturing unit with a capacity of 1.9 million tonnes per annum in Berbera. The project, carried out through MSG Group’s subsidiary, Horn Holding Group Limited, registered at DIFC, Dubai, includes the establishment of a cement grinding station with a capacity to produce 0.7 million tonnes of cement annually, which is expected to achieve commercial production by early 2024. The grinding station will be an integral part of the total 1.9 million tonnes per annum cement producing unit.
“This is the best ever news for the infrastructure industry in Somaliland. Thanks to this agreement, the port city of Berbera and the Horn of Africa is bound to experience tremendous infrastructural growth,” said Sinoma Commercial Director Cui Zhaoujun after the signing of the agreement.
MSG Chief Executive Officer Ahmed Saed said: “We are happy to sign this partnership with Sinoma. It is yet another milestone for Berbera which is emerging as an integral port city in the region.”

To achieve complete independence in the cement manufacturing process, MSG Group will install a clinker production unit of 1.5 million tonnes and additional cement grinding capacity of 1.2 million tonnes per annum. The unit will employ the latest technology to minimize its carbon footprint and prioritize the use of locally available raw materials for blended cement production. Additionally, the plant will incorporate a suitable capacity waste heat recovery system for power generation and explore renewable energy options to meet its electricity requirements.

Moreover, the establishment and operation of the cement manufacturing unit will create significant employment opportunities for the local community, benefiting more than 500 Somalilanders directly and an estimated 2,000 individuals indirectly through the development of ancillary businesses. The project is expected to bolster regional and national economic growth.
