CIMENTO BRAVO
It was from the merger between two big Brazilian companies — Cornélio Brennand and Queiroz Galvão — that Cimento Portland Participações , CPP was conceived . Since then , the focus has been placed on revealing “ Cimento Bravo ” as a differentiated brand and a benchmark in the Brazilian cement industry . Once all four units are completed , three factories and one grinding unit , combined they will produce 8.8 million tons of cement a year .
Even though the journey has just begun , the business plan already shows agility and strength as it arrives in the market . In 2014 , with a total investment of USD $ 38.7 million , a grinding unit — CIMAR — was built in São Luís , Maranhão state . A second integrated factory will soon be inaugurated in Paripiranga , Bahia state , once the installation environmental license is issued . Additionally , the two others , which will have a productive capacity of approximately 5.5 million tons of cement per year , will be introduced to the Southeast and Mid-West regions .
