We can handle upturn says Decco CEO
 |
John Findlay, CEO at the Decco wholesale group told GTN Xtra: “Solus has been an important part of the garden trade for many years and has given strong support to both manufacturers and retailers. It is regrettable that they now find themselves in their current position and it is not good for the industry as a whole. While many suppliers may be adversely affected we should be particularly mindful of the impact that the situation will have on Solus employees and their families. “That said, we do however have to deal with the reality of the situation. The next three weeks will decide how good the year will be for most garden centres and at Decco we have good stock levels and the resources are in place to get products delivered to retailers. “Over the past few weeks we have successfully delivered significantly higher levels of stock to a large number of garden centres and we are well placed to deal with the further upturn in demand that we are now anticipating. Everyone in our business is concentrating all of their attention and effort in providing our customers and our suppliers with the levels of service that they require at what is probably the most important time of the season.”
