    I go and see the buyer, take him or her a sample of your products.

    Aim for the autumn or early winter when selling, garden centres are very busy in the spring, remember that your garden centre customers are also competing for sales with you, so make sure that they can make a margin on the prices you are charging them, if they are selling the same products as you. Remember that a retailer with a physical presence has additional costs that a wholesaler or someone selling purely on line does not incurr.

    If you want to give me a call Ofer or email me we can discuss this more fully.
