About Us

Over the last 25 years Meadow View Stone has become an established and trusted supplier of Decorative Aggregates, Rockery Stone, Horticultural Products and Paving exclusively to the Garden Centre trade.

OUR UNIQUE PRODUCTS

Three production sites

STOCK HOLDING

Biggest importer in the UK

The three established production sites in Derbyshire, Shropshire and East Sussex have given the company key logistical advantages, increased production capacity and provided extensive stock holding. This has provided the means to offer competitive prices whilst ensuring complete and on-time deliveries are maintained in a quick and time efficient manner.

PREMIUM PRODUCTS We pride ourselves on supplying superior quality products by utilising our extensive washing and processing facilities located at our three production sites. Being the only supplier in our sector to have these facilities ensures that our premium collection of decorative aggregates is supplied cleaner, more consistently sized and better suited to retail than our competitors.

Similarly, our collection of paving and ancillary products undergoes vigorous quality control testing to ensure that every slab and piece of concrete leaving production is consistent in colour, size and durability.

EXCEPTIONAL SERVICE & ADVICE

“We have always found Meadow View a very easy and welcoming company to work wit h. The delivery on the products they provide is exceptionally good.”

House Plants: Sales are up in this category 31%, year on year.

Case Study Big Red is a retail outlet based in Grimsby, who decided to switch to Meadow View after visiting our stand at GLEE. They were happy to entrust the area to us and after analysing the current range and the space available we put in place a full merchandising plan, which included four large display gardens. This created an area which flowed well and encouraged customers to browse and view the products in a more structured and inspiring format.

Inspirational Merchandising The brief

• Grow sales, increase basket spend and unit sales value of area.

• Increase the quality of the products and range on offer.

• Look at the product range and evaluate holes or saturation.

• Evaluate pricing and Multi Buy offers to drive volume.

• Inspire customers to trade up or buy multiple products.

Stock profile

There was a limited range available, which simply included core selling volume products, which gave no competitive advantage or point of difference. The area was small, but the scope to increase the range and sales value of the collection held great potential.

What made them switch?

Big Red were unhappy with their current supplier so decided to visit GLEE to search for a new supplier. They were so impressed with the Meadow View stand they decided to switch.

Ordering Information

Ordering parameters DECORATIVE AGGREGATE COLLECTIONS

Mixed loads across all ranges

Each pre-pack pallet or bulk bag equates to one full pallet with a minimum order requirement of 5 pallets, e.g. 2 x rockery and 2 x pallets of slate and 1 x bulk bag of decorative chippings would meet the 5 tonne pallet requirement.

Minimum 5 pallet requirement

PAVING COLLECTION

Home delivery available

Most products are packed at 500kg per pallet, therefore 2 pallets of paving equate to 1 pallet of aggregates, e.g. 10 pallets of paving make up the 5 tonne pallet requirement.

A mix of any of the above, e.g. 3 pallets of aggregates and 4 pallets of paving make up the 5 tonne minimum pallet requirement.

Order online 24 hours a day, every day
