The company recently closed on purchasing the assets of Atlantic Minerals Limited in Newfoundland, Canada, consisting of a construction and chemical aggregates quarry and port operations. The new business will be operated as Cemex Materials Newfoundland, Inc.
With this acquisition, Cemex USA will be well-positioned to supply high-quality construction aggregates required to support the sustained growth expected in Florida and along the Eastern Coast of the US.
“This acquisition significantly strengthens our existing network and enables us to serve new markets,” said CEMEX USA president Jaime Muguiro. “I look forward to building on the success of this business as we meet increased demand from the private and public sectors, including critical investments in federal and state infrastructure.”
