A Promising 2024 for Independent Garden Centres with Stax Trade Centres

As we reflect on the highs and lows of 2023, the independent retail landscape has seen its share of challenges and successes. Looking ahead to 2024, the horizon appears more promising, with Stax Trade Centres at the forefront of empowering independent garden centres for continued success.

In the past year, Stax Trade Centres, a dedicated supplier to independent businesses, has tirelessly negotiated optimal deals and secured exclusive distribution agreements with household brands such as Baby Bio, Phostrogen & Provanto to name but a few. Beyond being a wholesaler, Stax is a strategic business ally, committed to supporting garden centres in their journey to thrive.

What sets Stax apart is its unwavering dedication to meeting the unique needs of the independent sector:

Flexible Ordering: Independent garden centres can tailor purchases to their audience, choosing from singles, cases, or pallets, ensuring the right fit for their business.

Personalised Support: Stax goes beyond transactions, offering regular visits or calls from dedicated representatives for delivered customers and support in branch for cash & carry accounts. This personalised approach ensures customers feel supported every step of the way.

Affordable Minimums: With a minimum order value for delivery of only £400 across a vast array of over 40,000 stocked product lines, Stax makes it easy for garden centres to access the products they need without needing to commit too much money into stock.

Profitable Partnerships: Garden centres have the opportunity to earn up to a 3% Stax Retail Rebate, adding a lucrative dimension to their partnership with Stax.

 

In essence, Stax Trade Centres is not just about the products it stocks; it's about the broader business benefits. From an extensive range and introduction of new brands to margin-boosting opportunities and tailored services, Stax is committed to empowering independent garden centres for a successful and prosperous 2024. With Stax as a strategic partner, the future of independent retail looks bright.
