In October 2017, local firms sold 6.2Mt of cement, including 4.7Mt of domestic sales, and 1.5Mt of exports. As of October 2017, Vietnam had 3.3Mt of cement and clinker inventory, mostly clinker.
At present, Vietnam’s cement output has reached 86Mt/yr, while domestic demand is estimated at only 60Mt. The country is thus predicted to face a surplus of 26Mt of cement overall in 2017, according to the Vietnam Cement Association (VNCA).
