PPC Donates 90 Tonnes of Cement to Cyclone Idai Victims Housing Project As a proud supplier of building materials and solutions in Zimbabwe and across Africa, PPC has been instrumental to the growth and development of communities across Southern Africa. For over 100 years PPC has invested in Zimbabwe beyond infrastructure, helping to build up and develop her people. The organisation has stepped in to support Zimbabwe in overcoming the devastation caused by Cyclone Idai in 2019. PPC has donated 1 800 bags of SURECEM cement to the Cyclone Idai Victims Housing Project - translating to 90 tonnes of cement to be utilised by Mutare Municipality for the cause. The donation was handed over to his Excellency, President E.D. Mnangagwa on the 15th of July 2020, and the cement was physically handed over in Mutare on 22nd July 2020. As a responsible corporate citizen with a vision to support the longevity of Zimbabwe’s infrastructure as well as the sustainability of her development, PPC believes it has an important role to play. With Zimbabwe pushing towards Vision 2030 and the infrastructure goals in that vision, PPC is holding the torch to light the way. As Zimbabweans strive to build our nation, we, as PPC believe together we are stronger. Through the donation of world-class SURECEM cement, PPC is lending its expertise, innovation and engineering to ensure that together, we build a future that benefits all communities. PPC Zimbabwe Sales and Marketing Manager, Nkosana Mapuma, shared the importance of businesses coming together to support all those in need, who desperately rely on the assistance and expertise provided by corporates. “All efforts are greatly needed to make a difference, and change the lives of those affected by Cyclone Idai,” Mr. Mapuma shared. “As a nation that practices the spirit of Ubuntu, Zimbabweans will always come together to help neighbours in need. As market leaders in our industry, PPC is committed to the rebuilding and development of our beautiful nation, regardless of the geographic corner.” With this in mind, PPC Zimbabwe presented three truckloads of UNICEM cement to Mutare province for delivery to affected areas. SURECEM, formerly UNICEM, is world-class 32.5N general purpose cement that has been engineered for excellence when used in multiple applications. It is just one of the high quality, dependable products out of several forming the PPC SURERANGE.
