A Trio of Awards

We are delighted to announce that Glendoick picked up a hat-trick of awards at this year’s prestigious Garden Retail Awards hosted by Horticulture Week.

Hundreds of leading garden industry professionals gathered at the Grand Connaught Rooms in London's Covent Garden to hear the winners of the Garden Retail & Garden Industry Awards 2016 announced. Glendoick were on that list of winners not once, but three times as we scooped a stunning trio of awards for Best Garden Centre Sales Team of the Year, Best Garden Centre community Involvement, and Best Garden Centre Event.

For those who don’t know, these awards are the Oscars of the British Garden Centre Industry and we feel extremely honoured to be recognised across so many categories by our professional peers. 

The Garden Retail & Garden Industry Awards event is hosted by one of our favourite gardening magazines, Horticulture Week, and was set up to celebrate the very best of the garden retail and wider garden industry in the UK.  This year, the awards were opened by Horticultural Week’s garden industry editor Matthew Appleby and as well as Glendoick's own fantastic achievements, the night saw several leading garden centres and industry professionals from across the UK recognised for their hard work, innovation and success stories.

In previous years we've won in the following categories:

• Glendoick: UK Garden Centre of the Year 2009, 2013
• Glendoick: UK Garden Centre Cafe of the year 2006, 2008, 2010, 2013
• Glendoick: UK Garden Centre Plant Area of the Year 2013
• Heather Borderie: UK Garden Centre Employee of the Year 2013.

Ken Cox our Managing Director, had this to say:

"I'm thrilled to have brought home three of these prestigious awards for Glendoick, particularly the Sales Team of the Year.  The Glendoick team work extremely hard all year round and to be recognised by the industry at this level is a real feather in their caps."
