Devki Group chairman Narendra Raval announced the groundbreaking of a new clinker and cement plant in Ngaaie, Kitui County, Kenya. The event is scheduled to take place in the Ukambani region, a key area in eastern Kenya. The project aims to enhance local manufacturing capabilities and generate employment opportunities.
The plant will produce clinker and cement, essential materials for construction and infrastructure development. Raval shared the announcement on X on October 24, 2026, inviting stakeholders and community members to participate in the ceremony. The initiative is part of broader efforts to stimulate economic growth in the region.
The Ukambani region has seen increasing investment in recent years, driven by its strategic location and access to raw materials. This new plant is expected to contribute to the local economy by creating jobs and supporting related industries. It also aligns with national goals to reduce reliance on imported construction materials.
The project reflects growing interest in industrial development in Kenya’s eastern provinces. With the plant’s completion, the region could see improved infrastructure and increased economic activity. The government has expressed support for such ventures, emphasizing their role in regional development.
