The next IGC Congress will be held in Denmark in late summer 2015 (9-14 August).

GCA delegates heard details from Per Boisen Andersen, editor of the trade magazine Danske Havecentre, who said participants would find plenty to learn not only about Danish garden centres but how major theme parks like Legoland attract footfall. “We have to learn from them,” he said. We all want to attract each other’s customers.”

Details of the congress can be found on their Facebook page or from Paul Cooling at Coolings Nurseries.
