("GCC" or the "Company") (BMV: GCC*), a leading cement producer in the markets where it competes in Mexico, United States and Bolivia, today announced the acquisition of four leading ready-mix concrete companies in eastern South Dakota and western Minnesota. The acquired companies, Consolidated Ready Mix, Inc., Henrich and Sons, Inc., Huron Steel Structures, Inc., and B&B Concrete, Inc., generate approximately US$ 30 million in revenues annually from 14 strategically located ready-mix plants with a fleet of 100 ready-mix trucks.
