Biffa seeks to drive organic growth across all of its businesses by gaining new customers and by upselling services to existing customers. In its I&C business, Biffa has a clear focus to grow by acquisition, as a natural consolidator within a fragmented market.
Biffa looks to leverage the control of waste feedstock from its collections operations to invest in sustainable waste processing infrastructure. The expanded capacity and service offerings that this brings will help deliver the sustainability ambitions of both Biffa and its customers whilst providing the Group with long term sources of earnings.
Biffa aims to maximise margins by operating its business as efficiently as possible. Optimising Biffa’s systems and processes includes activities such as integrating acquisitions on to Biffa systems, delivering strong levels of customer service to minimise customer churn, leveraging e-commerce opportunities and ensuring that projects meet investment criteria and help deliver our Sustainability Strategy.
