Further to its announcement on 9 March 2020 relating to the 2020 Annual General Meeting, Bunzl plc (the "Company") hereby announces that, given the developing situation with Coronavirus (COVID-19), the Company has taken the decision to change the proposed venue for the meeting to its registered office to give it greater control over the arrangements for it. The time of the meeting is also changing.
