Business description

Project Alder is an independent producer and supplier of aggregates, concrete and building materials.

The business represents a well-invested and vertically integrated platform, with operations spanning across the building product cycle, securing raw material production; product refinement; and distribution channels.

Alder operates from a well-connected footprint of sites, including an established processing hub and an active quarry, supported by a substantial and well-invested asset base with over £20m of fixed assets.

The Group has developed a strong local presence with a long-standing customer base across construction, infrastructure and local end markets, comprising a mix of national and local businesses, council-led project work and end user customers.

Trading in recent periods has been impacted by softer market conditions; however, the business retains a well-established market position with opportunities to enhance performance through operational and commercial initiatives.
