I sent an e-mail to LaFarge's investor relations. Maybe nothing, maybe something. But if we brokered LaFarge supplying cement for Dubai instead of buying the cement factories outright... that would mean solid, dependable revenues with zero overhead for years to come. I reviewed their third quarter report and didn't see anything about providing cement for Dubai construction.


Lafarge is the world leader in building materials, with top-ranking positions in all four of its businesses: Cement, Aggregates & Concrete, Roofing and Gypsum. With 80,000 employees in 76 countries, Lafarge posted sales of Euros 16 billion in 2005.

Lafarge is the only company in the construction materials sector to be listed in the 2006 '100 Global Most Sustainable Corporations in the World'. To make advances in building materials, Lafarge places the customer at the heart of its concerns. It offers the construction industry and the general public innovative solutions bringing greater safety, comfort and quality to their everyday surroundings.
