Christmas magic only or year-round appeal?
The best place for Christmas shopping is the garden centre, as the sales figures for garden centres show. Christmas is traditionally the strongest sales period, accounting for 25% to 40% of annual sales for most. The appeal of these shows attracts not only regular customers, but also many new visitors looking for specific Christmas products. How can you overcome the seasonal challenges so that you see these visitors all year round?
