The imbalance between supply and demand for cement in the North and the South is a reality that has taken place for many years in Vietnam's cement market.

Limestone, the main source of raw materials for cement production, is mainly allocated in the Red River Delta and the North Central Coast of Viet Nam. Meanwhile, in the South, only three provinces of Binh Phuoc, Tay Ninh and Kien Giang have limestone sources for cement production. No surprising, the large capacity cement factories are mainly located in the Red River Delta and the North Central region, most of the clinker grinding plants are located in the South of Vietnam.
