LONDON, UK: Breedon Group, a leading construction materials group in Great Britain and Ireland, has acquired Micromix (Northern) Limited which trades as Express Minimix, a ‘mini mix’ concrete operator based out of Durham, a news release said.
The company operates a fleet of 25 mixer trucks, specialising in delivering small loads of ready-mixed concrete and screeds, up to four cubic metres, to commercial and domestic customers across the North of England and parts of Scotland.
