J&H Bunn open new HQ in Norwich

Fertiliser blenders and distributors J&H Bunn are set to open new corporate headquarters in Norwich’s Broadland Business Park.

"This move will offer us more space to grow our business, and add resources and talent to support that growth," said Richard Sunderland, managing director of J&H Bunn Ltd. "It allows us to consolidate our corporate function in one location that is convenient for our customers and suppliers, and provides an attractive and efficient working environment for our employees."

Bunn has a product mix that includes a combination of straight fertiliser grades as well as custom blended grades.

Simon Radford, chief executive of Lothbury Investment Management, advisors to the Broadland Unit Trust, the Park’s owners, said "J&H Bunn is one of the region’s leading businesses and we are delighted that they have chosen to locate their corporate headquarters in the Broadland Business Park."

The Norwich location will accommodate 35 existing Bunn staff, with office space for a further 60 people. The office is planned to open by the end of June. The Bunn fertiliser terminal and the offices of subsidiary Spandler Brothers Ltd will remain at their Great Yarmouth location, and there will be no effect on the Fakenham facility of Paynes, another company in the Bunn group.

"Bunn’s growth strategy is focused on creating real value for the grower through our low-cost distribution network; wide range of straight, blended and value-added fertiliser products; and supporting services, like haulage and spreading," added Sunderland. "Providing the solutions our customers demand through innovation, flexibility and market knowledge is the commitment we bring to the market."
