We have an extensive range of premium quality pots, planters, water bowls, statues and an exclusive range of plastic saucers and other similar products from around the world.

Who is a typical Mojay Pots customer?

Our customers, many of whom have been with us for over 40 years, are primarily independent garden centres, florists, landscapers, and designers. We love supporting local businesses and due to our ever-evolving business model, we know that we can cater to each of our customers requirements to gain the best result.

How do you market yourselves to your customers?

We now have a Victorian State Manager, Mitchell Burke, based in Melbourne and he is on the road visiting Garden Centres and other associated businesses throughout Victoria. There will also be targeted marketing campaigns through social media and EDMs.

We have a comprehensive website with all information available on all our products with the idea that our customers can use our website and features as a sales tool for their customers view products in their own space and for them to order these through the garden centres creating more sales.

Do you have any longer-term plans for Mojay Pots?

While we have been in the Victorian market for some time, this year sees our new State Manager, Mitch, move to Melbourne so that he can be instrumental in expanding our presence in Victoria. We have numerous other plans for the future and will keep you all informed as they come in to place.
