• Concrete market is developing, often "spontaneous", unsaturated
• Unlike the precast concrete market, the concrete market is divided
between a large number of manufacturers
• The share of the average market participant is less than 3%
• The production of reinforced concrete products, according to expert
estimates, accounts for about 70% of the total volume of concrete
produced (concrete products were not taken into account in the
calculations)
• More than 170 companies and factories, not including construction
companies that produce concrete for their needs
• Over 800 concrete delivery companies
• Large producers, as a rule, consider concrete as an accompanying /
related product (the main one is reinforced concrete products),
market volumes for them are small

In _______ area located about 20 competitors, which is 11.63% from organizations throughout the city. The proportion of new
buildings (*incl. low-rise buildings) in this area is7.53%, i.e. in the area, the demand for concrete matches the supply.
Particular attention should be paid to area _______, which is located near area _______ and has a concrete supply shortage of
about 16%. The second most attractive area -_______.

Consumer segmentation
Consumers in the market can be divided into three main categories.
The main segment is house-building organizations and individuals, which in total account for more than 50%
of concrete market consumers (in physical terms). In this segment, there are both capital developers,
builders of low-rise housing, and private individuals.
* Excluding concrete produced directly by precast concrete manufacturers
Housing construction, 56.7%
Road construction, 28.4%
Concrete products, 14,9%
10. 10
Subsegments of concrete market
From the segment of house-building organizations, three can be distinguished subsegment:
Builders of capital housing are less in need of an "outside" concrete producer, since often large
construction companies produce it on their own for their own needs. For this reason, the main
segments are builders of low-rise housing and individual developers, in total 12%.
Capital construction, 88%
Low-rise construction, 2%
Individual construction, 10%

Subsegments
From the segment of house-building organizations, three can be distinguished subsegment:
Builders of capital housing are less in need of an "outside" concrete producer, since often large
construction companies produce it on their own for their own needs. For this reason, the main segments
are builders of low-rise housing and individual developers, in total 12%.
Capital construction, 88%
Low-rise construction, 2%
Individual construction, 10%
12. Thus, the capacity of the concrete market, which can be counted on when building a new plant in area _____
is about 33 thousand tons / year
If we talk about the growth rates of each of the segments, then low-rise construction is growing by +23% per
year, while individual developers - no more than 7%. In addition, the latter have a pronounced seasonality of
demand, presenting the main demand in the summer months. According to market expert estimates, the
demand for concrete in the next 3 years will continue to grow at about the same pace as in recent years.*
*Segmentation was carried out based on the classification of concrete depending on the application:
• hydrotechnical concrete for dams, sluices, canal linings, water supply and sewerage facilities;
• concrete for enclosing structures (light);
• concrete for floors, sidewalks, road and airfield pavements;
• special-purpose concretes (heat-resistant, acid-resistant, for radiation protection).
