SBM Life Science and E. P. Barrus join forces to offer new merchandising service

SBM Life Science and E. P. Barrus have announced a new joint merchandising partnership for the UK garden centre sector.

 

The SBM portfolio of brands, which include Baby Bio, Phostrogen, Toprose, Provanto, Job Done, Solabiol and Maxicrop, will be merchandised in key Garden Centres by the recently expanded Barrus Merchandising Team.

 

Barrus’s well-established and experienced Merchandising Team offer merchandising solutions and support to Garden Centres nationwide for their extensive line-up of garden tool and accessory brands including WOLF-Garten, Wilkinson Sword and Town & Country.

 

“The Barrus Merchandising Team are highly respected in the industry for the level of service they provide to Garden Centres across their premium quality gardening brands.  We feel the blending of our two well-regarded gardening portfolios will create a powerful merchandising resource for Garden Centres to utilise,” commented Darren Brown, Head of SBM LifeScience Ltd.

 

“This new partnership enables us to service the needs of garden centre’s by providing a consistent, and reliable merchandising proposition for both our brands and those of SBM,” commented Tim Hart, Director of Sales & Marketing at Barrus. “Our professional, highly-trained team has developed trusted relationships with our customers delivering a professional and flexible merchandising service.”

 

This new merchandising service will commence January 2019. For more information on this initiative, please contact your local Barrus or SBM sales representatives.
