Core garden care drives up sales
 

Core garden care products sales volumes are the key driver for another 20% plus week of year on year sales improvements.  Although a lighting line is the No 1 Bestseller, seven of the other Top 10 lines are garden plant care or pest control products.

 

Highlights of the week were:

  • Gardman Ice Orb Light Mini, pack of 2, stays at No 1 for the second week.
  • Evergreen Garden Care Roseclear Ultra, Ready To Use 1 litre moves up 4 places to No 4 to be one of five Evergreen Garden Care lines in the Top 10.
  • Neudorff Ant Killer Granules 500g is a re-entry at No 21, while Vitax Nippon Ant Killer Ready to Use Spray 750ml climbs 19 places to No 7.
  • Smart Solar’s Cool Flame Compact Torch is the highest chart climber of the week, up 34 places to No 11.
