Established in 1978, DGKC is involved in the production and sales of clinker, ordinary Portland cement and sulfate-resistant cement.

It supplies to markets across the country through a dealership network of over 2200 dealers. DGKC also exports to neighbouring markets such as Bangladesh, Afghanistan and overseas to Central Africa.

Meanwhile, Pakistan’s cement exports are weakening, even as domestic demand continues to show modest resilience.

According to data released by the All Pakistan Cement Manufacturers Association (APCMA), cement exports fell sharply by 26.53% year-on-year in November 2025, dropping to 590,183 tons from 803,258 tons in November 2024.

The fall extends an already worrying trend, following declines of 23%in October and 15% in September.
