Cement suppliers and cement truck manufacturers will very likely be considered essential businesses under a variety of categories in Minnesota during this coronavirus outbreak. There are multiple "Critical Industries" identified by the state relating to infrastructure and construction that could require production to move forward - such as:
-Cement and Concrete Product Manufacturing,
-Agriculture, Construction, and Mining Machinery Manufacturing.
-Support Activities for Road Transportation,
-Motor Vehicle Body and Trailer Manufacturing,
-Other Transportation Equipment Manufacturing
And, even in the event that a manufacturer might not be considered a critical business - if their work supports another critical business, then that'd be another reason the manufacturer's work may be considered essential.
With all of that being said, keep in mind that things can change quickly in times like these. So, it's important to keep an eye out for news from your local and state governments.
