About CemX
We are India’s first digital cement procurement company, an aggregator platform that facilitates a direct supply channel between the large dealerships of cement and the end consumers that may be a real estate company, builders or small retailers lower down on the supply chain in the B2B domain while it also targets individual customers on the B2C side. We aim to achieve parity and transparency in cement pricing by removing any arbitrage for offering economies of scale on cement pricing. We therefore are breaking the barriers of geographic segregations and demographics by disrupting the human-middlemen supply chain.
