City Cement Co.

What City Cement Co. does

City Cement Company (شركة أسمنت المدينة) is a Saudi Arabian public joint-stock cement manufacturer founded in 2005 and listed on the Saudi Exchange (Tadawul) under ticker 3003, headquartered in Riyadh with production operations in Marat. The company operates two rotary-kiln production lines with a combined capacity of approximately 10,500 MT per day (Line 1 at 5,000 MT/day since 2007; Line 2 at 5,500 MT/day since 2015), and sells three core cement products: Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC, SASO GSO 1914 Type I / ASTM C150 Type I), Sulphate Resistant Cement (SRC, Type V) for infrastructure exposed to sulfates, and a lower-carbon Green Finishing Cement introduced in 2022.

The business model is a direct-sales commodity hardware model: City Cement sells cement directly to more than 260 enterprise customers across 35+ destinations in Saudi Arabia within an 800+ KM radius of the Marat plant, serving ready-mix concrete producers, prefabricated block manufacturers, finishing contractors, and large-scale construction and infrastructure projects. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is structured around volume, delivery location, and contract terms. Revenue is supplemented by cost-side efficiencies from a Waste Heat Recovery system generating up to 16 MW of clean energy and a leading alternative-fuels substitution program anchored by the first integrated Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) facility in the Kingdom.

The company's strategic positioning centers on environmental differentiation in a competitive commodity market: it is the first cement company in Saudi Arabia to obtain Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) certification, holds ISO 9001/14001/45001/50001 certifications, ranks 1st in Saudi Arabia and 7th globally in the SIRI-based Future Factories Program for Industry 4.0 readiness, and has built a circular-economy extension through subsidiary Green Solutions Company and the Innovative Alternatives for Environmental Services joint venture with Tadweer and SIRC (PIF-affiliated). FY2025 profit was reported at SAR 128.9 million, with 101-250 employees and no disclosed parent company.
