Bumper sales at the start of December
|
Busy garden centres got off to a great start for December with high sales volumes across Christmas, catering, gifts, food and plants.
According to GTN Bestsellers, total sales were 22% up on last year with Christmas products up by 34%.
We’ve seen plenty of full garden centre restaurants, fully booked Christmas grottos and other events and overflowing car parks on our travels around the country for The Greatest Christmas Awards.
With our visit schedule fully booked through until Tuesday of next week we will soon be able to meet up and make decisions about the winners for 2016.
Remember the award for The Greatest Garden Centre Team at Christmas is decided purely by customer votes. There’s still time to get your customers voting. To get all the links and downloads to print out email trevor.pfeiffer@tgcmc.co.uk.
