約旦科威特控股公司投資2億美金新建水泥廠
該項(xiàng)目是基于對(duì)約旦的可行性研究顯示東部和南部水泥需求增加的基礎(chǔ)上確定的,同時(shí)約旦還可以出口水泥到鄰近國家,如伊拉克,沙特,巴勒斯坦和敘利亞。約旦科威特控股公司2004年成立,投資1.192億美金,其中85%的股份由科威特投資商持有。新廠將于2008年投產(chǎn),屆時(shí)將雇傭至少500人。
目前約旦共有兩處地方生產(chǎn)水泥,一處靠近安曼,另一處在約旦南部。先前由約旦水泥公司Jordan Cement Factories Company (JCFC)經(jīng)營這兩個(gè)廠,2001年停止經(jīng)營。約旦政府將其持有的48%JCFC公司的股份賣給了拉法基,其余則由約旦私營企業(yè)持有。
約旦建筑行業(yè)的繁榮使水泥需求增加,這座新建的水泥廠將是JCFC公司的強(qiáng)勁對(duì)手。JCFC公司去年銷售370萬噸水泥,其中250萬噸在約旦國內(nèi)銷售。去年JCFC公司的凈收入是5250萬約旦第納爾。

Jordanian-Kuwaiti Holding Company to set up $200 million cement factory
The Jordanian-Kuwaiti Holding Company (JKHC) will set up a $200 million cement factory in Jordan, the firm's CEO announced Tuesday.
The project is the first for JKHC in Jordan and, according to CEO Reem Badran, will be followed by other schemes in industrial, tourism, electricity, gas, water and infrastructure spheres.
The decision to build the factory was based on a feasibility study that showed a fast growing demand for cement which is found in abundance in the southern and eastern parts of the Kingdom, Badran indicated.
She pointed out that there is great potential for exporting the cement to neighbouring countries especially Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Palestine and Syria.
Established in 2004 with a $119.2 million capital JKHC is 85 per cent owned by Kuwaiti investors and the rest by Jordanians.
Badran indicated that at least 500 Jordanians will be employed by the new factory which is expected to start production in 2008.
At present, Jordan produces cement at two locations, one in Fuheis near Amman and the other in Shidiyeh in southern Jordan. The concession granted in 1950 to the Jordan Cement Factories Company (JCFC), which operates the two plants, expired in 2001.
The government sold its 48 per cent equity in JCFC in two stages for JD100 million to the French firm Lafarge. The remaining shares are owned by the Jordanian private sector.
Demand for cement is high to meet the present construction boom, and according to business circles the new cement factory is bound to create a strong competition for JCFC.
JCFC sells 3.7 million tonnes of cement annually of which 2.5 million are sold in the local Jordanian markets.
Last year, JCFC posted JD52.5 million in net profits.
