Scotts has announced that it is no longer in negotiations to join forces with Solus Garden & Leisure.

The proposed deal announced earlier this year, will now not go ahead.

Scotts Miracle-Gro Managing Director, Martin Breddy, said: “Our distribution agreement with Solus has expired. Stock is available via Decco, Stax or Scotts. Customers should contact a Scotts representative to agree new arrangements that suit them best. Our single-minded focus is on delivering outstanding service to all our customers for the balance of the 2014 season.”

Martin told GTN Xtra "all of the Scotts sales team are in contact with all their customers to ensure continued supply of all their products."

The statement from Scotts went on to say:  No further stock will be dispatched to Solus. No further Growing Media orders will be invoiced by Solus.
