About CIMAF
CIMAF, owned by Morocco's Ciments de l'Afrique, entered Ghana in 2011 as a value competitor and prices near the bottom of the range alongside Dzata. Its arrival, with Dangote's and Dzata's, broke up the old near-monopoly and is part of why cement is more competitively priced today than a decade ago. For structural work it meets the same grade standard as the premium brands, so the choice against Dzata usually comes down to whichever is cheaper and available at your yard on the day.
Is CIMAF worth it? The numbers

Cement only, at ~500 bags for a like-for-like comparison — not the full materials bill. A green figure is what you save on the cement line versus that brand.
Best for
Bulk buyers and contractors ordering by the trailer; a value bag with steady Tema supply, interchangeable with Dzata on most jobs.
Watch for
Against Dzata the decision comes down to the day's price and what your nearest yard stocks — check both before you commit.
