“The Smart Show must go on…line!”

Smart Garden have launched their online Virtual Showroom enabling all customers to ‘visit’ the Company’s Eureka facility at Peterborough!

 

For those unable to visit in person, this new platform enables them to see the complete product offering and neatly complements Smart’s catalogues. This will be especially helpful for those unable to travel due to local restrictions as well as for overseas customers.

 

Online visitors can look round the whole showroom using an easy on-screen navigational tool. New products introduced for 2021 are clearly highlighted in high-resolution allowing users to zoom in and get a full appreciation of products, packaging and displays.

 

“When customers can’t come to our showrooms, no problem, we will bring our showrooms to them!” said Jonathan Stobart, MD “This has been designed to be really easy to use and, while our retail partners usually prefer to visit in person, this is the next best thing. Feedback has been extremely complimentary, and we are delighted that we have now enabled all our customers to visit and re-visit our product ranges at their leisure all year long.”
