Note to Editors

Breedon Aggregates is the leading independent aggregates business in the UK after the four global majors.  It operates 53 quarries, 26 asphalt plants, 61 ready-mixed concrete plants and three concrete block plants in England and Scotland and employs around 1,240 people.  The Group has strong asset backing, with over 500 million tonnes of mineral reserves and resources in the UK.  Breedon Aggregates' strategy is to grow through consolidation of the UK heavyside building materials sector.

In November 2015 Breedon announced its intention to acquire Hope Construction Materials Limited for £336 million.  The acquisition is expected to complete in the summer of 2016, creating the UK's largest independent building materials group with one of the country's largest cement plants, nearly 60 quarries, more than 200 ready-mixed concrete plants and around 750 million tonnes of mineral reserves and resources in England, Scotland and Wales.
