GOLDEN MOMENTS FOR
The Greatest Garden Centre Christmas Teams After visits to garden centres across the UK during November and December, and then weeks of meetings, debate and discussion the winners of GTN’s Greatest Christmas Awards 2021 were finally announced on the Inspiring Retail Stage at Spring Fair on Monday evening, 7th February, where great Christmas retailers and suppliers joined us for a celebration of all that’s great about garden centre Christmas retailing.
T
he Greatest Awards team of judges had a truly wonderful time visiting all of the 57 garden centres nominated in this year's awards and were overwhelmed by the excellence of garden centre retail teamwork once again, despite continuing difficult circumstances. GTN’s Greatest Christmas Awards recognise the teams of great people who make garden centre retailing so special, without them the great displays and memorable customer experiences would not be possible. Thank you to all the teams we met for their time and their enthusiasm.
