Zambezi Portland Cement Factory, then and now

January 30, 2015 PCZambia

The people of Zambia and all around Africa have often expressed their blunt feelings for the Zambezi Portland Cement Factory because it never remained in the news or showed any big developments. However, with the New Year there has been a turnaround for this factory as it has produced one of the best results for heavy scale factories in Africa. As per confirmed reports, ZPC has registered an annual production of 4, 73, 985 tonnes of cement in 2014. The figure indicates achieving 130% of the forecasted output.

Situated in Ndola, ZPC has always remained passive with its contributions. It contributes at a large scale, but never comes to the limelight because it is confined to supplying materials in construction projects. Exceptionally, this time its contribution has been so bog that it is bound to make a big news. The installed capacity of ZPC on annual capacity is around 3, 60, 000 tonnes along with a daily production potential of 1000 tonnes. This time around the same has been achieved with ease.

The production expanded because of the Ndola Housing Project that focused upon building 71 new houses for the people of Ndola who had lost their existing home. Additionally, the production of ZPC takes quality control seriously and has a ZS ISO 9001:2008 certification, which comes from the Zambia Bureau of Standards (ZABS). The recent success has also motivated Dr. Rajan Mahtani to invest in Masaiti by way of constructing a new lime plant in the next 24 months.

**Update**

The Zambezi Portland Cement Factory is now being managed by the minority shareholders, the Ventriglias. They took over the management of the company on April 7, 2015 by force and since then, the situation has degraded continuously. According to the workers, the working conditions have degraded and they are not being paid for their hard work. The factory which had once shown promising result is now at the mercy of the Italian Mafias.

Success and growth comes again to Zambezi Portland with ISO certification

January 23, 2015 PCZambia

With the advent of the New Year 2015, the Zambian citizens have been observing numerous positive events. One common thread linking all these events is Dr. Rajan Mahtani, who owns the FBZ (Finance Bank of Zambia) as well as the Zambezi Portland Cement Factory. While the FBZ recently tested success when FBZ was made public and granted stock trading options, another auspicious event occurred on Thursday, 15^th Jan for the Zambezi Portland when it was awarded the ISO (International Standard Organization) 9001:2008 certifications for the quality management process. This certification, which was given by ZABS (Zambia Bureau of Standard), signifies that the Portland cement factory will now be able to efficiently promote its resources, reduce costs of operations as well as earn higher profit margins.

Dr. Rajan Mahtani commenting on the event said that the ISO certification will help in expanding the firm’s global as well as regional business opportunities. He also stated that the certification will aid in better planning and execution of strategies and operational processes.

The event was lauded by the Chairperson of the ZABS, David Nawa. According to him, the certification was an accomplishment for both ZPC and his institution.

With the certification, Dr. Mahtani also announced ERP for its business. ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) is a strategic business practice that will ensure the ZPC’s internal as well as external information management is well integrated and operational cycle is minimized effectively. With these developments, it can be said that the Portland Factory will achieve new heights in coming future.

The Zambezi Portland Cement Factory owner, Dr. Rajan Mahtani has set a new benchmark in the realm of social responsibility. On January 18, 2015, Dr. Mahtani has successfully handed over the ownership of a Chapel in the hands of Mwembeshi Prison. This noble contribution has been done with an aim to educate the prisoners and show them a new path of life based on the Biblical Principles.

A pledge which was taken by Dr. Mahtani during his visit to Prison Fellowship International President, Rev. Timothy Koo, in May 2014 is 90% complete and the whole project is expected to be completed by the end of January 2015. The total associated expenditure on this project is about K 500, 000 and every single penny has been borne by the Mahtani Group of Companies.

Percy Chato, the Commissioner of Prisons, was overwhelmed with this donation from Dr. Rajan Mahtani and expressed his gratitude towards this contribution. This donation has been rightly remarked by Percy Chato as “tireless” and “unselfish”.

The event has once again highlighted the level of commitment from Dr. Rajan Mahtani. Being a man of words, he has always fulfilled his promises on time and has ensured that Zambia continues to move ahead in the path of development with harmony and God’s grace.

Masaiti bows to Zambezi Portland Cement Factory – 2015

January 10, 2015 PCZambia

The Zambezi Portland Cement Factory is offering an impressive result in Masaiti, Africa. Dr. Scott, the Acting President, has sanctioned US $ 2 million for the development of Masaiti and most of the activities is being hosted by Zambezi Portland Cement.

Dr. Rajan Mahtani, the owner of Zambezi Portland Cement Factory and the Chairman of Finance Bank Zambia is heavily occupied with numerous activities as both of his businesses have big targets to achieve. On one hand, Dr. Mahtani has promised to build clinics, schools and markets for the residents of Masaiti and on the other hand, FBZ is also scheduled to list on the Lusaka Stock Exchange by the March 2015.

The industrial activities in Masaiti is growing at a rapid pace and therefore, it had become necessary to vacate residential lands of the locals to replace the same with better infrastructure. However, the people who have lost their lands are also being offered free houses with better sanitation facilities and access to clinics and schools without being charged a penny. This whole project is being completed by the Zambezi Portland Cement factory and the Senior Chief Chiwala has also expressed his gratitude towards the contribution that Dr. Mahtani has made for the development of Masaiti.

For Dr. Rajan Mahtani, it is not about making large profits or achieving business goals, but it is all about developing Zambia and giving the locals an opportunity to live a better and safer tomorrow.

Dr. Rajan Mahtani least bothered about Presidential Election Results- 2015

January 5, 2015 PCZambia Leave a comment

The Presidential Election result in Zambia is due on January 20, 2015. This day will decide the fate of Zambia’s development as the new President of Zambia will preside over his seat. However, an unexpected news that came to limelight was that Dr. Rajan Mahtani’s empire was at stake in this election. According to an article published on an infamous Zambian news portal, it is being said that if Dr. Rajan Mahtani’s party doesn’t win this election then Dr. Mahtani can face some stringent tax evasion cases.

The news has come as a shock for most of the people in Zambia as they were not expected a conspiracy in the midst of a political havoc. Nevertheless, the conspirators did manage to create a news that was as fake as their own words. This is not the first time when something like this has happened. The year 2014 has already witnessed some similar shameful events.

Dr. Rajan Mahtani is the Chairman of Finance Bank Zambia and the owner of the Zambezi Portland Cement Factory. It is totally absurd to connect a businessman to politics. Being an iconic figure in Zambia, business and development of Zambia attract Dr. Mahtani. All other areas are of lesser priority to him. His faith in Christianity and Biblical Principles has made him a man whose only motive is to develop Zambia and help the poor. Least interested in politics, Dr. Rajan Mahtani has never shown any interest towards either joining politics or supporting any party. Recently, his bank has opened a new branch in Lilongwe, the capital of Malawi.
