Changes to Garden Centre Group Numbers Following Wyevale Sales

The sale of Wyevale's last few centres has prompted changes in GTN Xtra's 'State of the Nation' garden ownership chart. 

British Garden Centres jump to No 2 while Caulders and Otter Nurseries become equal 10th biggest garden centre groups.

British Garden Centres jump to No 2 with the 22 sites purchased last week and two sites; Windsor and Enfield being traded by British Garden Centres while they await development outcomes as a result of earlier sales to developers.

Klondyke, Notcutts, Hilliers, Squires, Cherry Lane and Hillview all move up one place following the disappearance of Wyevale as a garden centre brand.

At No 10, Caulders and Otter Nurseries, with seven sites each, enter our chart for the first time.  Caulders purchased two centres from Dobbies earlier in the year and Otter Nurseries added two from Wyevale Garden Centres in April.
