Agriculture

Farming is vital to the UK economy, and is now the largest onshore primary industry in the country. It is part of a food industry that in manufacturing terms far outweighs traditional industries such as steel, shipbuilding or cars. It is intensive, highly mechanised, and efficient by European standards, producing around 60% of food needs with less than 1.4% of the labour force.

Why Burdens?

Established in 1929 and with a reputation for outstanding customer service, Burdens have grown to become market leaders in the supply of civil engineering, specialist construction and environmental materials.

A national depot network provides immediate availability of Burdens' vast stock holding. Over 80 acres of external storage space, warehouses configured with state of the art storage and handling systems, and deliveries made by one of the UK’s largest specialist crane off load delivery fleets provide the physical infrastructure that is the foundation of Burdens' customer service. 

Building on this experience, Burdens have expanded its  product range, supplier base and stock holding to offer a comprehensive and dedicated service to the agricultural sector.
