Starting a concrete production business for the first time is often risky, especially in overseas markets where installation, operation, and technical support can be uncertain. This case shows a simple truth: AIMIX not only supplies equipment, but also provides on-site installation and operational support, helping first-time investors successfully start and run a batching plant.
The client is a construction industry investor from Tunisia, who had long relied on purchasing ready-mix concrete from local suppliers. Over time, two major issues became increasingly evident:
To gain better cost control and ensure a reliable supply chain, the client decided to establish an in-house concrete production system. The project was located in Burkina Faso, where the client aimed to produce concrete for both internal use and external sales.
Despite clear investment goals, the client faced a major obstacle — a complete lack of experience in concrete plant business investment and operation. Key concerns included:
This was not just an equipment purchase, but a full-scale industrial startup from zero.
During the early stages, the project plan went through several revisions. Through continuous communication, We identified a critical operational requirement:
The project required relocation across different job sites, with a need to minimize foundation construction. Based on this, AIMIX recommended the AJM60 concrete batching plant, a foundation-free solution specifically designed for flexibility and efficiency.
Key advantages of this solution include:
At the same time, the client evaluated several suppliers. Through factory inspections, online technical discussions, and case comparisons, AIMIX stood out for the professionalism, engineering experience, and practical solutions.
With a tight project schedule, timely delivery and efficient execution were essential. We ensured:
Completed on schedule to ensure timely project delivery.
Experienced engineers were sent to Burkina Faso to provide professional installation guidance.
Full on-site support was provided to ensure proper installation and smooth system commissioning.
Practical, hands-on training was delivered to help ensure stable and efficient plant operation.
This hands-on approach significantly reduced the client’s risk. The AJM60 foundation-free plant was installed smoothly, tested successfully, and quickly transitioned into stable operation.
Following commissioning, the client achieved a successful transformation:
Most importantly, the success of this first project built strong confidence in expanding future investments.
This initial collaboration marked the beginning of a long-term partnership. With the successful operation of the AJM60 batching plant, the client is now in discussions with us regarding additional equipment and capacity expansion.
This case highlights an important insight for new investors: choosing the right partner is just as important as choosing the right equipment.
AIMIX goes beyond manufacturing by offering tailored solutions, equipment optimization based on real site conditions, on-site installation and commissioning, and ongoing operational support. For clients with little or no experience in concrete production, this integrated approach ensures smooth project delivery and stable long-term operation.
