The recent spike in cement prices places Nigeria in a higher bracket than other African countries despite the presence of major cement brands such as Dangote, Lafarge, Ibeto, BUA, and UNICEM, which dominate the market.

These brands, known for their quality and wide distribution network, sell cement bags at almost uniform rates across the country.

Notably, Ibeto and BUA Cement are positioned as the more budget-friendly options in the Nigerian cement market. In contrast, Dangote Cement occupies a mid-range price point, whereas UNICEM and Lafarge Cement are priced at the higher end of the spectrum.
