Lights at number one again
 

As last year decorative bottle lights are again the No 1 Bestsellers as we near the end of November – the volumes this year are much higher. 

 

As a result it has been another bumper week for garden product sales – up by 41%.


Highlights of the week were:

  • Creative Products Bottle Light is No 1 for another week.
  • Vivid Arts Playful Dancing Penguin is the highest chart climber, up 39 places to No 10.
  • Scheurich’s Cover Pot 7cm is the highest re-entry at No 11 on the back of the increased Poinsettia sales – see the GTN Bestsellers Plants Chart on the front page.
