This state-of-the-art facility, located in Ramgram, Hakui, Nawalparasi, is set to transform Nepal’s industrial landscape by reducing import dependency and enhancing self-reliance in aluminum production.
To commemorate this significant achievement, a Furnace Firing Ceremony was held on March 26, 2025. The event was officiated by Mr. Krishna Bahadur Raut, Secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Commerce, and Supply. The ceremony was attended by key government officials, business leaders, and industry experts, all recognizing the project as a major step toward Nepal’s industrial independence and economic resilience.
Currently, Nepal imports aluminum rods to meet the growing demand in the wires, cables, and conductors sector. The establishment of this plant will significantly reduce import dependency by ensuring a steady and high-quality supply of aluminum rods within the country. By localizing production, Litmus Industries aims to help decrease Nepal’s trade deficit and retain valuable revenue within the national economy.
Beyond its economic benefits, this ambitious project is set to create substantial employment opportunities across multiple sectors. The plant is expected to develop skills and technical expertise in Nepal’s aluminum and electrical industries.
The launch of Nepal’s first aluminum rod manufacturing plant is not only a major achievement for Litmus Industries Limited but also a strategic milestone for the nation’s manufacturing sector. By promoting local production and industrialization, this initiative is poised to attract both domestic and foreign investments, further strengthening Nepal’s economic stability. Additionally, by adding value to raw materials through local processing, the project aligns with the government’s vision of fostering industrial growth and self-reliance in key economic sectors.
