The Cement Industry in Bolivia refers to the production, sale and consumption of cement in the country since according to the latest official data from the National Institute of Statistics of Bolivia, the country had a production of around 3.8 million metric tons of cement during the year 2022.
In Bolivia there are five large Bolivian companies that produce cement, which are: SOBOCE, FANCESA, COBOCE, ITACAMBA, and ECEBOL.
