United Kingdom cement, aggregate and concrete operator Breedon Group has closed a $238 million deal for Lionmark Construction Companies LLC, significantly expanding a U.S. footprint established with the 2024 acquisition of BMC Enterprises, St. Louis peer and neighbor. Lionmark Construction has been recognized for excellence in safety, quality and customer satisfaction, owing to team members’ commitment to producing aggregates and asphalt, and building or maintaining surface transportation infrastructure. The transaction stands to more than double Breedon Group’s revenue this side of the Atlantic, while also increasing vertical integration efficiencies.
“The acquisition represents a significant milestone in the development of our business. Lionmark is extremely complementary to our existing operations, diversifying BMC’s product to supply asphalt and surfacing solutions into an attractive market which is well-positioned for future growth,” says Breedon U.S. Managing Director Andy Arnold.
“In a year we have built a U.S. business of scale that is already on a pro-forma basis the equivalent size of our Irish business,” adds Breedon Group CEO Ron Wood. “We are delighted to welcome our new colleagues and look forward to working with them as we continue to expand Breedon’s presence in the United States.”
