Yamama Cement Co.

What Yamama Cement Co. does

Yamama Cement Company is a public joint-stock cement manufacturer headquartered in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, listed on the Saudi Exchange (Tadawul) under ticker 3020. Founded in 1961 and named after a historic landmark in the central region of the Kingdom, the company operates a single technologically advanced production plant built to high environmental standards, with a total installed capacity of up to 20,000 tons of cement per day across multiple production lines.

The company's commercial offering is built around three core cement products: Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) for residential, commercial, industrial, and infrastructure construction; Finishing Cement engineered for plastering and decorative works; and Sulfate-Resisting Portland Cement (SRC) for sulfate-rich soil environments such as coastal and desert regions. The company holds ISO 9001 (quality) and ISO 27001 (information security) certifications and positions itself on environmental sustainability, with a stated vision to be the leading cement company with environmentally friendly standards.

Yamama Cement generates revenue primarily through direct B2B sales of bulk cement products under project-based, multi-year contracts negotiated with construction firms, infrastructure developers, and government entities in Saudi Arabia. Its go-to-market combines field-based enterprise sales with event-driven engagement (for example, Diamond Sponsorship of the Future Projects Forum), complemented by digital self-service portals ('Madar' and 'IDISPO') for order management and a structured supplier registration system. Distribution is concentrated domestically within Saudi Arabia, with no disclosed international expansion. The target buyer base spans five primary use-case segments: residential, commercial, infrastructure, industrial construction, and sulfate-resistant applications.
