Breedon Group has confirmed it has re-launched its Aghamore quarry in Ireland as it pursues a “strategic expansion” pathway.
The re-opened site is Breedon’s 10th active quarry in Ireland, which underlines its growth since entering the Irish market in 2018. With planning permission recently granted, the quarry site will add to Breedon’s capabilities to sell into the wider north-west of the country.
Breedon Group managing director of quarries and concrete Fraser Thom said the re-opening will strengthen the company’s operational capabilities and long-term supply prospects in Ireland.
“The reopening of our quarry in Aghamore is a key milestone in our ongoing investment strategy across Ireland. This facility aligns with our vertically-integrated model and strengthens our ability to service customers on the island of Ireland with high-quality, locally sourced materials,” he said.
“It also reinforces our continued commitment to supporting regional growth, sustainable operations, employment, and infrastructure development.
“This new facility further expands our capacity to supply high-quality aggregates, asphalt, concrete blocks, and ready-mix concrete to customers across the region, helping us to deliver on our strategic objective to build a fully integrated, nationwide platform for construction materials.”
