The Hope cement plant was built by BPCM in 1929 as a wet process plant with two kilns. The plant was expanded with additional kilns in 1935, 1938 and 1953, with a final capacity of 600,000 tonnes per year. In 1970, it was re-built with two dry process kilns with a capacity of 1.2 million tonnes per year, and it remains operational (2012).
