The Competition Authority of Kenya (CAK) has approved the acquisition of Cemtech Company Limited by Simba Cement Company Limited.
“CAK considered that Cemtech has been dormant for a decade. Its shareholders have been looking a strategic partner to finance construction of a cement plant. The proposed acquisition is therefore expected to resuscitate the dormant firm, create jobs and raise the economic profile of West Pokot County” said the CAK in a press statement.
