Hot weather drives sales down in garden centres
Garden centres don’t appear to have benefitted from the unusually hot weather last week. GTN Bestsellers EPoS data indicates that total volume sales dropped by 14% on the previous week and on the same week last year. Perhaps the weather was so good everyone went to the beach instead.
If that is the case then, let’s hope for some rain and cooler temperatures to keep people at home and getting active in their gardens. As this week’s edition of Bestsellers is being prepared the heavens have opened.
Meanwhile, at Glee we saw more new products than ever before, many of which could go on to be bestsellers. Which ones did you think will become bestsellers? Let us know by email trevor.pfeiffer@tgcmc.co.uk
