Concret-Mix S.A.

What Concret-Mix S.A. does

Concret-Mix S.A. is a privately held Paraguayan industrial conglomerate, founded in 1968 and headquartered in Asunción, operating as a core subsidiary of Grupo Bogarín. The company runs a vertically integrated construction-materials platform spanning ready-mix concrete and mortars (since 1994, at plants in Ñemby and Mariano Roque Alonso), prefabricated concrete products (pipes, manholes, posts, piles, paving blocks), hydrated lime under the Concret-Cal brand (sourced from the Itapucumí quarry acquired in 1997), agricultural lime, dry mortars under the KlauMix and ArgaMix brands (Ñemby plant, since 2013), and cement via the Yguazú Cementos plant in Villa Hayes, inaugurated in 2013 with 750,000 tonnes/year capacity and supplying roughly 40–50% of Paraguay's national cement demand.

Beyond materials, Concret-Mix operates adjacent infrastructure businesses: Puerto San José, a 19-hectare river port in Mariano Roque Alonso with 350 meters of frontage, three reinforced concrete docks, 3,500 TEU container capacity, warehousing, and customs facilities, plus a river transport fleet of more than 40 barges serving the Paraguay River; a road construction division executing GMANS and CREMA government maintenance contracts; an electromechanical division; Construshopping and Construshopping Home retail outlets (over 2,700 m², 5,000 products from 200 suppliers); and Steromar for real estate administration. The group exports Concret-Cal to Argentina.

Revenue mechanics are predominantly B2B industrial sales (bulk cement, lime, concrete, logistics) supplemented by direct-to-consumer retail through Construshopping; pricing is not publicly disclosed and is negotiated through direct consultation at corporate offices. Customers include construction companies, government infrastructure projects, agricultural producers and feed manufacturers, port importers/exporters, and individual homeowners. Quality certifications (ISO 9001:2015, INTN) support participation in regulated infrastructure tenders. Revenue figures are not publicly disclosed, and the company's strategic expansion has plateaued since the 2018 Construshopping Home launch, with no recent funding rounds, acquisitions, or major capacity additions evident in the input data.

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• GCC (Grupo Cementos de Chihuahua): Mexico- and U.S.-focused cement and concrete-products producer with vertically integrated operations and ready-mix exposure. Closely comparable in business-model structure (cement + ready-mix + aggregates) to Concret-Mix's integrated platform.
• Votorantim Cimentos: Brazil-headquartered cement and construction materials multinational with active South American footprint including Paraguay. Largest regional cement producer, comparable to Concret-Mix on cement and concrete products but with global scale and broader geographic diversification.
• Loma Negra: Argentina's largest cement producer, integrated across cement, concrete, and aggregates. Comparable to Concret-Mix on the cement/concrete/aggregates combination and on emerging-market operational profile, with adjacent geographic exposure to Concret-Cal's Argentine exports.
• Cementos Argos: Colombian-founded regional cement and concrete producer with operations across Latin America and the U.S. Provides a comparable vertically integrated cement-to-concrete platform with exposure to emerging-market construction cycles similar to Paraguay.
• Holcim Paraguay: Local affiliate of global cement major Holcim Group, operating clinker, cement, and concrete businesses in Paraguay. Direct competitor to Yguazú Cementos for national cement share and to ready-mix concrete operations.

Regional players

• Melón (Sociedad Industrial de Cemento y Minería): Chilean cement and construction-materials producer with integrated lime and mortar offerings. Comparable to Concret-Mix across the cement, lime, and dry-mortar product mix and on Latin American emerging-market operating profile.
• Ultracem: Latin American cement and concrete player with operations across Central and South America. Comparable as another mid-sized regional cement producer competing for share in Concret-Mix-adjacent construction-materials end markets.
• Calera San Cayetano / Grupo Avellaneda: Argentine construction-materials group producing lime, cement, and concrete products. Comparable to Concret-Mix's Concret-Cal hydrated-lime business and adjacent on cement and concrete product lines.
• Cementos Concepción (CECON): Paraguayan cement producer directly competing with Yguazú Cementos for the remaining share of national demand. Operates as a single-country cement-focused rival, materially comparable to Concret-Mix's cement division.

Direct peers

• Cementos Pacasmayo: Peruvian cement, concrete, and construction-materials producer serving domestic and adjacent emerging-market demand. Closely mirrors Concret-Mix's structure of cement plant plus ready-mix, mortars, and prefabricated products in a single emerging-market geography.
