On Sunday evening the 7th annual Greatest Christmas Awards will be presented at the Majestic Hotel, Harrogate.
This year 117 garden centres were nominated in The Greatest Christmas Awards 2015 which means our expert judges made visits to over 250 teams and travelled the length and breadth of the country. From Inverness to Guernsey, from Belfast to Norfolk, the results are now only days away.
As one of our judges said: “I am amazed by the excellence of Christmas in Garden Centres and the dedication from the teams who design, construct and maintain the displays over such a long period. Our Industry should be proud of itself!”
On Sunday night we will be presenting Gold, Silver or Bronze Awards to 27 different garden centres, with a further 13 winning a regional award.

The Greatest Awards were conceived by the teams at Garden Trade News and Garden Radio as a way of rewarding and celebrating excellence of the teamwork in UK garden centres. Teamwork that sets garden centres apart from other retailers and provides truly great customer experiences day after day.
It is at Christmas when that teamwork comes through in even more abundance with staff working cross departments to deliver magical experiences for young and old and peaks of trading for garden centre businesses.
