According to Carib Cement, the company is currently operating at full production capacity and has successfully addressed various operational challenges, including those caused by adverse weather conditions in recent days.

“Our valued customers and the public can expect further improvements in cement delivery over the coming week,” Carib Cement said, adding that it “remains committed to better serving its customers and enhancing services to ensure a reliable local supply of products.

“We sincerely appreciate the patience and understanding of all our customers,” the cement manufacturer said.

In early September, Carib Cement confirmed that it could not meet demand in the local market but said it was implementing measures to address the shortage.

In late September, Industry Minister Aubyn Hill reportedly announced an end to the cement shortage, stating that Carib Cement assured him that adequate supplies were now available to customers.
