CEMEX Angling, for many years the most highly regarded and respected commercial angling organisation in the UK, has, after a long period of uncertainty and questionable management, been officially put on the market.
A statement from CEMEX UK Operations Limited today read quite simply:
A difficult decision has been made to put CEMEX Angling up for sale. As part of the regular and on-going business reviews, we have decided that Angling is not core to our operations and in the current economic climate we have limited resources and capital to develop the business in the future.
We will be honouring existing tickets sold and will be selling tickets for this season only.
CEMEX Angling was started in the 1960’s as part of the Hall’s Aggregates business and has been an important part of our company, providing an excellent and sustainable after-use of the quarried land, much valued by anglers.
For further analysis and a ‘no holds barred’ behind the scenes look with former CEMEX Angling boss – and the man who created many of the organisation’s iconic waters – stay tuned to FishingMagic over the next few days!
