Bunzl non-exec ups stake
A round-up of the biggest director deals today so far.
Bunzl's only female non-executive director in its 150-year history has purchased shares in the firm just one week after a report showed annual revenue growth of over 6%.
Eugenia Ulasewicz, who was appointed as a non-executive in April 2011, bought 4,000 shares at 837.8655p each.
The distribution and outsourcing firm credited a string of acquisitions throughout the year as the reason for the boost. The group spent £185m on ten acquisitions this year, and said company takeovers remain "an important part of the group's growth strategy."
