Zest adds to its modular outdoor entertaining collection
GTN Xtra Promotion

 

Following the outstanding success of Zest’s outdoor entertaining collection during the 2025 season, the timber garden furniture and outdoor leisure specialist is returning to SOLEX to unveil a host of additional ‘al fresco’ products (stand number #430) and show promotions, exclusive to Zest’s on stand visitors.

 

The Zest stand will boast additions to the modular Terraza Outdoor Kitchen range, a brand-new, Verona outdoor kitchen offer in a pebble tone, a choice of stylish new dining sets to suit different tastes and budgets, an innovative pergola seat concept and a brown dining and seating range, made in the UK, in response to consumer demand.  

 

Zest will also be showcasing its recently acquired B-Corp supplier status.  B Corp certification is awarded by B Lab to companies that demonstrate a commitment to balancing profit with purpose. The Zest senior team including Steve Morgan, Andrew Baker and new Commercial Sales Manager, John Gomersall as well as the regional sales team will guide existing and new customers through the latest product developments.

 

 

All products come with merchandising and lifestyle imagery. New products will be promoted in consumer magazines and on digital platforms in 2027. The new additions are designed to appeal to a broader and more diverse consumer audience as well as its current Zest admirers.

 

Zest’s outdoor entertaining products are made from sustainable slow-grown softwood sourced from PEFC certified (PEFC/16-37-1490) forests.
