I wish to express my gratitude to you all for taking the time to come and join us at this special event. We also welcome you all here at Lafarge Head office in Chilanga.
We are happy to announce the partnership between Lafarge and ZNBS on the Bwela Timange Mortgage promotion. The partnership will allow Lafarge to provide discounted cement to all the beneficiaries of the 160 Mortgages as well free delivery via our last-mile delivery platforms Afridelivery and Tigmoo.
It is estimated that over 1.5 million Zambian families need houses. The most upward trend is in the urban areas due to urbanization which puts pressure on housing.
This need has caused a huge demand in the housing market in Zambia and people are building houses without professional guidance. To help tackle the problem of unprofessional construction of houses, we are happy to partner with ZNBS who will provide financial assistance and Lafarge who will provide construction solutions at an affordable price.
As a leader in the construction sector, Lafarge Zambia will continue to develop innovative products and services that make the building of people’s dream houses a reality.
Today through this partnership our customers will be able to access mortgage financing and sustainable construction materials to construct affordable houses, hence helping to reduce the housing deficit the country is facing.
Ladies and Gentlemen, I want to urge all home builders to make use of this Mortgage promotion to help you build your dream home for your families
As I conclude, allow me to thank you all once again for coming and the teams that have been working hard to ensure that we have a successful signing ceremony.
I thank you.
