Saudi Arabia Cement Market: Key Drivers, Trends and Challenges

Our researchers analyzed the data with 2023 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.

Key Saudi Arabia Cement Market Driver

Increased government spending on infrastructure is the key factor driving market growth. Saudi Arabia gives high importance to infrastructure development because infrastructure spending is directly proportional to economic growth. This is because rapid economic growth provides jobs and delivers important services such as energy, housing, and clean water supply. A country's strong infrastructure encourages multinational companies (MNCs) to make heavy investments and set up their establishments.

In addition, apart from the overall development of the whole economy, it also affects the living standards and human development index of a country. It helps in meeting various demands created by the expansion of the population and the increasing spending power of citizens. Therefore, increased government spending on infrastructure will drive the Saudi Arabia cement market during the forecast period.

Key Saudi Arabia Cement Market Trends

The construction of low-power-consuming cement plants is the primary trend shaping market growth. The cement industry is one of the world's highest energy-intensive industries, with fuel and energy costs normally representing approximately 30%-40% of total production costs. On average, the specific electrical energy consumption typically ranges between 90 and 130 kWh per ton of cement. With the proposed cut in energy subsidies that are expected to take place in the future, market players are looking for alternative ways to counter the expected increase in production costs.

Moreover, major players in the Saudi Arabia - cement market, such as Yamama Cement and Saudi Cement, are investing in new infrastructure to increase production efficiency and reduce power consumption. This trend among cement companies in the region is expected to balance the anticipated increase in production costs over the long term, which in turn will positively impact the market in focus during the forecast period.

Key Saudi Arabia Cement Market Challenge

Expat levy on foreign nationals is a challenge that affects market growth. The government of Saudi Arabia implemented an expat levy on sponsoring foreign nationals. This monthly levy, which is applicable for both employees and their dependents, is expected to increase at a steady rate over a four-year period. This expat levy is especially taxing on companies that have a workforce comprising more foreign nationals than Saudi nationals.

Moreover, in an industry heavily dependent on manpower, expat levies will reduce the inflow of blue-collar workers into the country, affecting the growth of the cement market. Consequently, this scenario is expected to impede the growth of the Saudi Arabia cement market during the forecast period.
