RMC Group plc
 PROFILE
Mysteriously departed mobsters might've had more than a passing acquaintance with a product that's now RMC Group's specialty. The company is one of the world's largest makers of ready-mixed concrete with operations in nearly 30 countries, mostly in Europe. Acquisitive RMC concentrates on heavy building materials, primarily for the construction industry, including aggregates, asphalt, and precast and prepackaged concrete products. RMC added the cement business of the former Rugby Group to its holdings in 2000. Other UK operations include waste disposal and landfill management. The company sold its 95-plus Great Mills UK building-supply retail stores to Focus Do it All.
