When speaking to Garden Centre owners and managers I realised they have a unique set of concerns when compared to other retailers. 

• Indoor and Outdoor sales areas with a variety of different flooring types from tile to carpet to gravel to block paving are the number one issue.
  • Solution: Formbar has in stock a huge selection of different trolley types and wheel sizes and types to suit. We will also when necessary deliver in samples to be tested prior to a purchasing decision.
• Sloping site where trolleys run away into product displays or cars in the carpark.
  • We can fit braked castors to the majority of our trolleys
• A huge variety of products from the plants to dirty bags of compost to the prettiest silk scarf to breakable china gifts and so much more.
  • From smart hand baskets to easy to use strong trolley baskets to small light weight all plastic trolleys to the best garden centre trolley we have the right options to suit the centres requirements
• Seasonality in foot fall
  • A big problem for garden centres in the peaks and troughs in customer numbers. Formbar offer a popular hire service, delivering in trolleys and baskets for use during the seasonal spikes in trade.
