Larfarge Africa Plc has launched its ambitious 2030 Plan. The plan would impact 75 million people by tackling the planet’s biggest issues, setting new standards and being the leading example of sustainability.

The 2030 Plan is supportive of the UN Sustainable Development Goals and consists of four pillars: Climate, Circular economy, Water & Nature, People and Communities.

Each target comes with a set of quantitative targets such as reducing emissions, deriving energy from waste and developing initiatives that will impact 75 million people across the world. The theme for the 12-year plan is “Building for tomorrow.”
Folashade Ambrose-Medebem, Director of Communications, Public Affairs & Sustainable Development of Lafarge Africa said.
“It’s part of what we do wherever we operate. Some of the world’s biggest challenges like urbanization, housing and climate change are visible in Nigeria. The 2030 Plan is our way of providing sustainable solutions to these challenges within and outside our operations.”she said.
Resource scarcity alongside urbanization, climate change and housing needs are some of the challenges the world faces today, especially in emerging economies like Nigeria.
As part of its alternative fuel strategy, Lafarge is using local alternative energy sources at its plants across the country. At Ewekoro in Ogun State, almost half of the energy generated in one of its kilns comes from palm kernel shaft and shells.
Michel Pucherchos, CEO of Lafarge Africa also said  “LafargeHolcim, of which we are a subsidiary, is not only the world’s largest building solutions company but one with a rich history of sustainability.
This enables us to adapt quickly and proffer sustainable and innovative solutions in markets like Nigeria where the growth potential is immense but must be sustained for future generations.”

Lafarge Africa Plc is one of the 90 locations in which LafargeHolcim is present, with headquarters in Lagos, Nigeria.Its focus is to responsibly, safely and sustainable provide essential components for building affordable homes and improve the economy through accelerated infrastructural development.
