BREEDON GROUP PLC ("Breedon" or "the Group")

Acquisition of Pro Mini Mix

Breedon Southern Limited, a subsidiary of Breedon, the UK's largest independent construction materials group, has acquired Pro Mini Mix Concrete, Mortars and Screeds Limited ("Pro Mini Mix"), a 'mini mix' concrete operator based at Oldbury in the Black Country and covering the West Midlands.

The company operates a fleet of eight mixer trucks and specialises in delivering small loads of ready-mixed concrete and screeds, up to four cubic metres, to commercial and domestic customers.

Breedon Southern already operates a successful mini mix business, 1stMix, which has a strong presence throughout the East Midlands and East Anglia. Pro Mini Mix, which will be based at Breedon Southern's new ready-mixed concrete plant in Walsall, will enable the Group to extend its coverage across the central belt of England, taking advantage of the buoyant markets in and around Birmingham.

Commenting on the acquisition Tim Hall, Chief Executive of Breedon Southern, said: "Pro Mini Mix is the perfect complement to 1stMix. It has a well established reputation in the West Midlands market, with a strong local service ethos and a great team. It also offers us another valuable route to market for our aggregates and cement."
