Abdulsamad Rabiu is the founder of BUA Group, a Nigerian conglomerate active in cement production, sugar refining and real estate.
In the second quarter of 2015, the company signed a contract with FLSmidth for a 3 million mtpa new production line in Edo Cement to be sited at Obu, Edo state. In 2017, the company Commissioned the Obu Cement (Line I) 3million mtpa facility in Obu, Edo state.
In 2018, BUA Obu Cement completed a 3million mtpa plant resulting in a combined capacity at Okpella of 6million mtpa.
In 2020, BUA Group consolidated its cement operations and listed BUA Cement Plc on the Nigerian Stock Exchange with a total combined installed capacity of 8million mtpa and a market capitalization of N1.18trillon (US$3.3bn), making it the second largest cement producer in the Nigerian market and the largest cement producer in the North Western region of the country.
BUA Cement PLC is a publicly listed firm headquartered in Nigeria, it produces and markets cement products in the country. The company was formed through the consolidation of the cement interest of the BUA Group, promoters of Obu Cement Company and the Kalambaina Company majority owned Cement Company of Northern Nigeria.
BUA Group's entry into the cement market began in 2008 when the government gave the license to import cement to a selected group of entrepreneurs. The company initially began operations with a floating cement clinker, re-bagging the products before it went on to purchase controlling interest in the then struggling Edo Cement plant. Majority of the firm's raw materials are found close to its plant locations in Edo and Sokoto States.
The company was listed on the Nigerian Stock Exchange in January 2020 with a market capital of $3.2 billion.
