Iain Wylie, Chief Executive of the GCA, explained: “Our line-up of guest speakers is now complete and we’re thrilled to have Matthew taking to our stage to share his knowledge with our attendees.

“The agency provides global best practice and creative insight to clients across all retail sectors, in order to help them benchmark best practice and improve their businesses, by harnessing evolving global consumer and retail trends.

“As garden centres rely heavily on retail, we think this will be a particularly interesting talk for our conference attendees and they will be able to take everything they learn from Matthew about current retail trends and incorporate it into their own garden centres.”

The GCA represents nearly 200 garden centres nationwide. Through sharing information and its inspection programme, the organisation helps members to achieve high standards in customer service, plant quality and reliability.
