The Fijian Holdings Limited is currently looking at sites to relocate its Lami based cement plant factory.

Group Chief Executive, Nouzab Fareed says they’re facing a number of challenges that’s forced them to consider relocating the factory.

Fareed says they have decided to relocate the factory as Lami is slowly becoming a residential area.

You can’t have a cement factory without a little bit of pollution. We are not polluting but what I am trying to say is there will be carbon emission, there will be wastewater, and there will be dust. We have minimized the dust emission but still in the interest of everybody, the people the road the stakeholders, so we are planning to relocate the cement plant within the next five to seven years

However, Fareed says they are yet to confirm a site.
