Sales rise as Indian Summer gets the nation growing
The Indian Summer definitely got the nation back out into their gardens last week, and not just for entertaining. Growing Media sales (up by 35%), plant sales (up 17%), and lawn care and slug control lines also saw high sales increases.
With continued good weather this weekend we could be on for a record September which would make up some of the year to date shortfall in the nick of time before Christmas sales get going.
And so off to Glee. The GTN Bestsellers team will be at Glee for the duration. You can find us in the Glee Daily News office in Hall 20 or at the Glee New Products Showcase in Hall 17. See you there!
