Senegal experienced a notable boost in its cement industry in November 2023, with production surging by 21.9% compared to the previous month. This growth, as reported by the National Agency of Statistics and Demography (Ansd), was fueled by a 22.8% increase in exports and a 15.7% rise in local sales during the period.

When compared to November 2022, local sales saw an 18.1% increase, while production rose by 14.7%. However, the report also highlighted a 11.6% decrease in cement exports over the same period, indicating a mixed performance in the sector's external trade.
