Breedon Group – the £1.4 billion turnover construction materials and quarrying giant – has announced some big changes.
The Leicestershire-headquartered group said it has completed its move from the AIM stock exchange to the Main Market. It has also acquired Lincolnshire surfacing and civil engineering firm Minster Group, and it has also agreed to play a bigger part in trying to cut emissions in the cement and lime industries within the Peak District.
Management said trading on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange would further enhance its corporate profile. It would also allow index tracker funds and a broader group of international institutional investors to put money into the group.
