Exeter, Devon, UK: Pennon Group Plc announced recently that its subsidiary Viridor Waste-Management, has acquired Grosvenor Waste-Management, a leading UK materials recycling company, for a cash consideration of £79.5m plus debt of £1.5m. Pennon says that the acquisition is in line with the Group’s strategy of expanding its waste-management activities. Grosvenor operates the Crayford MRF (materials recycling facility) which is the largest in the UK and one of the most technologically advanced. It also operates a MRF on behalf of Peterborough City Council and has industrial and commercial collection activities complementary to its recycling facilities. The company also has an extensive recyclate sales network both in the UK and overseas. Grosvenor has invested over £5.4 million in new facilities and management processes since 2004, including a new autosort plastic and can facility which was installed in summer 2006 at a cost of £1.5 million and more recently an additional 80,000 tonnes per year material recycling line. The company employs over 250 people. Management News Blog Comment: Waste management is not a subsidiary to any other mainstream anymore; rather it has acquired the stature of an entirely independent science as well as a complex hi-tech business on and of its own accord. It simply happened so since the production crossed the levels of consumption on earth. Over-production is the bloodline of the modern capitalistic structure of business. Over-production does need over-consumers. But consumption is not as easy as production is, which should never stop 24 x 7 even for a minute; or the business will go in losses. So the problem of used as well as unused waste to be managed! And the solution is a booming business of waste-management technology!
