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.

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."
