Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>The Chinese company, Dinson Iron and Steel Company (Disco), says it has increased the workforce at its Manhize steel plant construction site in Mvuma, Midlands Province, Zimbabwe to 1 400.<\/p>\n

Disco is a subsidiary of Tsingshan Holdings, the world\u2019s largest stainless-steel producer.<\/p>\n

Disco public relations manager, Joseph Shoko, said they are working to meet the December deadline when production is expected to commence. He said:<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s a hive of activity at the Manhize steel plant construction site in Mvuma and the project is now 60 percent complete.<\/p>\n

We have engaged more employees and we now have a strong 1 400 workforce mostly locals from the surrounding areas who are working to meet the December deadline when production is expected to commence.<\/p>\n

… we are moving with speed, with no hiccups either other than the challenges of electricity, which stalls progress.<\/p>\n

We need electricity at this stage for welding for example and unfortunately, we are not spared of long hours of load shedding.”<\/p>\n

Shoko said the blast furnace at the main complex is over 60 percent completed.<\/p>\n

He said the Sintering Complex was 70 percent complete while the De-dusting complex is almost complete.<\/p>\n

Shoko added that the main workshop and warehouse, which is 400x150m is about 80 percent complete now. He said:<\/p>\n

“Lots of fabrication is taking place, bending of steel of all sizes we need and also bending and shaping zinc is taking place. So, it\u2019s a hive of activity at the site.<\/p>\n

You may also take note of the Munyati Manhize state-of-the-art bridge that has been completed.<\/p>\n

The power line from Sherwood is set to begin soon. Towards the end of the year, production is earmarked to start.<\/p>\n

We resettled 12 families and six in Chivhu to pave the way for mining activities.”<\/p>\n

Estimates indicate that the plant will produce about 1.2 million tonnes of steel annually and create over 10 000 jobs at its peak.<\/p>\n
