Has the UK cement market become more competitive?


Back in May 2012 we asked who would buy Lafarge's Hope cement plant in Derbyshire. The answer was a company from India called Mittal Investments. 
The sale was a condition of the UK Competition Commission in response to the proposed joint venture between Lafarge and Tarmac. It also included 172 ready mix concrete plants, five aggregates quarries, two asphalt plants, one marine aggregates wharf, one rail-linked aggregates depot and the sale of Tarmac's 50% ownership interest in Midland Quarry Products.
