We're seeing a great deal of consolidation in the retail side of our industry at the moment. Fewer Independents - more chains. As a generation of garden centre owners begin to look at retirement, what's the future for suppliers to our industry?
Correct Orlando it is worrying in the northwest there are very few independent garden centres left where as Strikes and Blue diamond have being buying up plenty. This does leave the consumer with very little choice. Worrying times ahead for retail.
