Concession Brands

Pioneering the growth of retail concessions in garden centres

Before working with us, many of our retail partners did not have a concession offering. We helped them develop this over the years providing unique opportunities for them away from the high street.

Over the last decade, where many high streets have seen declining footfall, garden centres have increased their market share. This has led to new customers viewing garden centres as a day out, eating in restaurants and cafes and shopping in the concessions and the traditional garden centre departments.

We will help you build a concession offering that is appealing to garden centres or alternatively help your existing development evolve. We will facilitate introductions between you and the garden centres, help with the negotiations of Heads of Terms, assisting throughout until the concession installation is concluded.
