 PROFILE
Cementos Portland should know how to build a business on a strong foundation. The company's principal business is the production and distribution of cement (about two-thirds of sales), and it also makes concrete and clinker (an intermediate product used to make portland cement). The company distributes cement, gravel, and sand through its US subsidiary, Giant Cement Holding. Cementos Portland also operates lime and gypsum factories. Additionally, the company has a 49% stake in the Spanish electric utilities company Sociedad de Fomento Energético. Cementos Portland is a publicly traded subsidiary of fellow Spanish cement company Portland Valderrivas, which owns nearly 60% of Cementos Portland.
