As prices of virtually everything keeps going up, home builders and other construction stakeholders are more concerned about the increaing prices of building materials especial cement which is the major requirement in every construction work.
It’s obvious globally that the nemesis of nations at the moment is COVID-19 and its ripple effects. Greater economies are on their knees, whiles others beg for capital resuscitation from the global bankrollers.
Three types of GHACEM cement
Accramail.com’s business unit took upon themselves to survey the current prices of the various cement products of the major producer in Ghana, Ghacem. A check from their marketing department revealed that Ghacem cement is being sold between GHC40 and GHC 44 depending on the strength type.
The table below shows the exact price quotes from Ghacem’s price sheet for Tema and Takoradi. Not forgetting that once the cement leaves the production hubs that’s either Tema or Takoradi, the stated prices change due to the addition of transportation and other handling charges. So a bag of cement that sells at GHC44 in Tema, may sell at GHC50 in Sunyani or Kumasi.
