Savannah Clinker, a firm wholly owned by seasoned Kenyan entrepreneur Benson Sande Ndeta, has upped its offer to Kshs 27.7 billion, including a Kshs 1.8 billion sweetener for all shareholders.

This revised bid now outpaces the US$180 million (Kshs 23 billion) offers made by Tanzanian conglomerate Amsons Group, which also aims to acquire the entire Bamburi equity stake.

Key Highlights:

  • Enhanced Offer: Savannah Clinker’s revised offer presents a compelling proposition for Bamburi Cement shareholders, providing a higher price per share and more favorable payment terms.

  • Offer Closing Date: The closing date for both offers is December 5th, 2024.
