We extend our two-component Pomeron, Gotsman-Levin-Maor-Miller (GLMM) model, for soft high-energy scattering to single inclusive cross sections. To this end we present a suitable formulation which also includes the semienhanced Pomeron-particle vertex corrections. The available data on single inclusive density (1/{sigma}{sub in})d{sigma}/dy in the c.m. energy range of 200-1800 GeV are well reproduced by our model. The just-published ALICE Collaboration point at 900 GeV is in excellent agreement with the calculations of our model. We also present predictions covering the complete LHC energy range which can be readily tested in the early low-luminosity LHC runs. The results presented in this paper provide additional support to our Pomeron model approach.
