Syria’s General Company for the Manufacturing and Marketing of Cement and Building Materials (Omran) on Thursday held talks with an investment delegation from China’s BITEC on expanding technical, commercial and investment cooperation in the cement and construction materials sector.
The meeting, held at the company’s headquarters, focused on upgrading production lines, improving operational efficiency and supporting Syria’s reconstruction drive, as the country seeks to rehabilitate key industrial sectors.
Amran Director General Mahmoud Fadila presented an overview of the cement industry’s current condition, highlighting production realities, future development plans, available investment opportunities and the main challenges facing the sector, along with proposed solutions to overcome them.
The Chinese delegation said BITEC was keen to expand its footprint in the Syrian market, expressing readiness to provide technical expertise, modern technology and industrial support to help raise production quality and capacity.
Both sides agreed on the importance of maintaining close coordination and moving toward concrete implementation steps to translate discussions into practical projects that would strengthen Syria’s cement industry and contribute directly to reconstruction efforts.
The cement sector is regarded as a strategic pillar in Syria’s rebuilding process, as demand for construction materials continues to rise.
