BREEDON GROUP PLC ("Breedon" or "the Group")
Acquisition of Staffs Concrete Limited
Breedon Southern Limited, a subsidiary of Breedon, the UK's
largest independent construction materials group, has acquired
Staffs Concrete Limited ("Staffs Concrete"), a 'mini mix' concrete
operator based in Stoke-on-Trent.
The company operates a fleet of eight mixer trucks and two
concrete pumps, specialising in delivering small loads of
ready-mixed concrete and screeds, up to six cubic metres, to
commercial and domestic customers in Staffordshire.
Staffs Concrete complements Breedon's existing mini mix
businesses, 1stMix and Pro Mini Mix, which operate throughout the
West and East Midlands and East Anglia. It will draw material from
Breedon's local ready-mixed concrete plants and extend the Group's
reach to the north of Birmingham.
Commenting on the acquisition Mike Pearce, Chief Executive of
Breedon Southern, said: "Staffs Concrete is exactly the kind of
bolt-on acquisition we're looking for. It has a great reputation,
with a really committed team and a loyal customer base. It further
strengthens our overall position in a key market for us and will
enable us to provide our existing customers with an exciting new
product and service offer."
