International sanctions, currency and energy price fluctuations, transport and insurance limitations, as well as intense regional competition, are among the issues exporters must carefully manage to maintain and grow their market share. Additionally, changes in climate conditions and environmental standards in destination countries may affect the quality and price of cement.
