OK, how about this:

You tell us how many international concrete ready mix companies are already there.

That'll help narrow the field.

I suggest CR4 Admin should have an automatic alert system to handle anonymous posts. All anonymous posts should immediately go through a screening process, to see if they are legitimate in relation to this forum or they are commercial in nature .

Of course, anonymous posts relavant to the scope of this forum should still be allowed.

I'm all for that too! Let's lock 'em out unless they ask/say something that's relevant and acceptable to us "regulars".

Wait a minute, if they apply they standard to all of us, there'd only be a few people left.

The question you should be asking is which ones will the kingdom let in?

Tarik,

Why would you been looking for an international ready mix company from outside of Saudi, when you already have at least two "international" ready mix companies in place, who have their own quarries, labs, equipment and offices throughout your country, ready to serve?

If you are planning to establish a competing company, why would you expect, and how would you plan to take market share from the others?

Well I hope you've figured out by now, this isn't the place to find the company you're looking for. Go Google yourself some companies, read their profiles, decide who would make a likely partner, and approach them with your

well defined plan as to how you will take market share, and

clear analysis with figures showing that demand is growing

If a concrete/cement company from the USA has an interest in doing business in Saudi, it will more likely be registered with the US Embassey in Saudi. You can check with them or make the rounds to the other embassies to see if they have companies with an interest.

That's to much foot work for him, he'd rather let his fingers do the walking and someone else supply the answers, That's my take on him, you can see his other idea here. I really don't mind helping someone out, but I don't appreciate doing their research for them!

When it comes to concrete, the world leader in the design and construction of plants is FLS Minerals (AKA FL Schmidt industries).

FLSmidth is headquartered in Copenhagen, Denmark. Their engineering group is located in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, USA (Why I do not know!).

When I completed my contract with them, they had cement plants in damn near every single country on the planet and had contracted with China to build 40 more of them.

When you consider that cement is the single largest man-made product on the planet you get a sense of how large FLS is.

It takes enormous amounts of energy to make cement and it's key ingredients (like limestone).

The manufacture of cement is also one of the worst offenders on the planet when it comes to generating carbon dioxide, if such things are important to you.

I believe their closest technology center is located in Chennai, India.

The office is in Bethlehem PA because more then likely the original company they bought out was from there. Bethlehem , PA and surrounding areas were once the largest producers of Portland cement in the world until around the 1960's.

Better buy concrete ready mixer and mix cement+sand+grave= concrete ready mix. You can sell extra ready mix to others. .

Big Louies Concrete and Shoe Company in Queens comes to mind. I've used them in the past, they are reliable, keep their mouths shut. They do custom work.

Cash only, though they might work for oil.
