DJ Turfcare’s trading partner Viano confirms investment of €6million to support business growth

 

DJ Turfcare – exclusive suppliers of the organic-based lawn fertiliser portfolio including MO Bacter and Recovery – has confirmed details of the latest investments being made by its trading partner, Viano; investments that will enable DJ Turfcare to continue to deliver market leading solutions and outstanding customer service levels throughout 2022 and beyond.

 

Representative of a €6million investment and directly in response to the ongoing demand for organic based fertilisers – a demand which is expected to only grow stronger - Viano has added to its production and packaging site, providing the company with significantly increased capacity up 50% year-on-year.

 

To support the increased production capacity, Viano has also increased its packaging processes, increasing from two to five lines. A fully automated box-filling unit is also set to be commissioned in autumn 2022, helping to streamline the process even more. Further automation is also set to be rolled out across the warehouse, including pick, pack and despatch.

 

Whilst these latest updates are undertaken, Viano and DJ Turfcare are pleased to confirm that current production and packaging lines will continue unaffected, meaning existing orders will be fulfilled within the expected timescales.

 

DJ Turfcare’s David Jenkins said: “We are proud to be part of the Viano family, especially as their ethos aligns so perfectly with our own. From green powered production facilities to capacity to meet growing demand, we are confident that our partnership will pay dividends for the entire supply chain, especially as demand for organic-based product is expected to continue to increase as consumers make more considered choices.”

 

Recognising the challenges that the UK garden retail supply chain continues to face, DJ Turfcare is also offering its retail customers a unique promise based on orders made before Christmas 2021.

 

Any retailer who places an order with DJ Turfcare before the festive break will see their order prices held for the first half of 2022, with delivery lead times similarly protected*.

 

* whilst DJ Turfcare will do everything in their power to meet this promise, please note that in exceptional circumstances some lead times/prices rises may be unavoidable.
