Morocco's cement sales demonstrated strong momentum in June 2026, with figures soaring to 1,068,527 tons. This represents a significant 27.76% increase from the 836,355 tons sold in June of the previous year, indicating a robust performance in the construction materials sector.
Despite the positive monthly trend, the cumulative sales for the first half of 2026 experienced a minor dip. Total distribution volume reached 6,801,900 tons, a 1.28% decrease compared to the 6,890,296 tons distributed during the same period in 2025. This suggests a slight slowdown in overall demand for cement across the first six months of the year.

These companies are all members of the Professional Association of Cement Companies (APC), which has also included "Noussiam" as a permanent member since January 2024.
