Garden products back to 9% down on volume
 

Garden Product sales, as measured by the GTN Bestsellers Top 50 from garden centre epos data, are now only 9% down on last year for sales volume. Quite an amazing position considering we recorded zero sales for what would normally be seven peak weeks when garden centres closed for the Covid 19 pandemic.

 

Highlights of the week were:

  • Woodlodge Spang Pot 4 inch doubled their sales and moved up 10 places to No 5.
  • Evergreen Garden Care FungusClear 2 1 litre Ready To Use Gun was the highest new entry of the week, in at No 13.
  • Greenkey’s Mini Mister in Mixed Colours was the highest chart climber moving up 28 places to No 18.
