The AMES Companies expands home delivery service

 

The AMES Companies has expanded its home delivery service to feature even more of the market leading brands. In doing so, garden centres can benefit from increased sales, safe in the knowledge that the logistics are taken care of and that very little precious floorspace is required.

 

Previously only available for Kelkay aggregate products, home delivery is now available for 53 Kelkay paving lines, 47 Easy Fountain lines and all 16 products in the Woodshaw range. Retailers can reap the benefits, selling a wide range of products from a minimal footprint that can be relocated to suit seasonal demand, cross category ordering and customer flow.

 

Selling bulky items is easier than ever thanks to a simpler customer journey and delivery straight to the consumers’ homes. With the right point of sale in place, garden centres can offer an extended range of aggregates, paving, water features and wooden garden furniture, with no outlay required.

 

Retailers simply utilise a selection of helpful POS to show customers which products are available for purchase in store. Shoppers select their product and pay at the till as normal. From there, the retailer sends the order to the relevant AMES Companies brand, which will deliver the order within ten working days. This makes it easier than ever to fulfil large orders and increase basket spend, taking the transaction as normal but letting the AMES Companies handle logistics. Milestone Garden Centre in Melrose is one centre that has already taken advantage of this new service. By installing Woodshaw’s Tansley Storage Arbour, the busy garden centre has saved ample display space in store whilst still offering the entire range to its customers.

 

Home delivery from the AMES Companies is available now. To secure your home delivery solution, get in touch with the AMES Companies today by visiting
