BGF invests in Leeds company Northern Building Plastics

The GP's backing will help the company expand its service, delivery capability and product range. 

As part of the deal, John Browett, who has held CEO and board roles at companies such as Dixons, Dunelm Group, Tesco and Apple, joins the company as non-executive chair. 

Barry Jackson, who led the deal at BGF, said the company was capable of significant scale and was trusted by its customers "because of its quality products and the fact its super depots allow the business to provide much greater stock availability and a next-day delivery service across the UK".
