Fargro sets its sights on growth at Glee 2025 with new look and location PLUS 200+ inspiring product launches

Fargro – the UK’s leading wholesaler of decorative pots and containers – is set to make a major statement at Glee 2025, where they’ll unveil an ambitious growth strategy, a striking new stand design in a fresh, new location, plus the launch of its National Product Catalogue 2025–26, which will showcase more than 200 new additions for both retail and grower markets. Visitors can find Fargro at stand 12G50–H51, but this years’ experience promises to be unlike anything they’ve seen from the brand before.

 

A new chapter for Fargro at Glee


Breaking from tradition, Fargro’s stand has been completely reimagined with a lifestyle-led approach, designed to make it easier than ever for visitors to picture products in a real retail setting. Inspired by the season’s on-trend hues of teal and green, and elevated with regal accents, the displays will fuse visual inspiration with commercial opportunity, helping buyers see how these ranges can transform their own offerings.

 

 

New season, new heroes


While Fargro favourites, including best-selling added-value and decorative lines, will be on show, it’s the new introductions that will take centre stage. Among the standout additions for 2026 are the Premium Hudson and Lucia planters from CTI, the elegant Royal and Regency designs, and the stone-look King Arta and Lady Cathryn planters, the latter adding a touch of grandeur to any retail display. Bringing the 2026 Colour of the Year* - Transformative Teal - will be the Country Garden Collection, which will feature striking designs in teal and rich greens, perfect for the trend conscious shopper.  

 

The much-loved magnesia collection will also grow with the arrival of charming new animal figures, from cows, foxes and owls to characterful birds, plus a bronze-look series featuring an ape, cow, dog and elephant. The decorative stick range will welcome the whimsical new Mushroom collection, perfect for seasonal merchandising.

 

For the home-grown market, Fargro are showcasing DCM Plant Based Feed - the perfect choice for healthy, vibrant growth in peat-free compost. Made entirely from plant-based ingredients and Soil Association certified, this premium fertiliser offers a sustainable solution for gardeners. Discover why it’s an essential addition to your retail range.


Melanie Wood, Head of Marketing at Fargro, said: “Our focus at Glee 2025 is growth – for Fargro and for the retailers and growers we partner with. From inspirational new product lines to our boldest stand design yet, we’re creating more ways than ever to help our customers boost sales and delight their own customers.”

 

Meet the Fargro team at Glee 2025 in Hall 12, stand G50–H51. If you can’t attend, the company’s showrooms in Northwich and West Sussex offer the perfect opportunity to explore the complete range, meet the team, and discuss bespoke design and sourcing services for exclusive product development.
