The Garden Center Group has announced it will host its Retailers’ Choice Awards at three leading trade shows this summer: Cultivate’14 in Columbus, Ohio, SNA 2014 in Atlanta, Ga., and the 2014 Farwest trade Show in Portland, Ore.
All retailers are invited to participate with The Garden Center Group's Sid Raisch and Danny Summers to help dsicover the best new products for retail at each event. Danny Summers, managing director of The Garden Center Group says, "It is an exciting experience to join other retailers in this challenge to find the hottest new products. Participatnts gather together at the opening of each show for insturctions before they peruse the show floor individually at their own pace to find and evaluate new products," he says. "Later in the afternoon, the evaluation group meets to compare and combine notes for award nominations. Participants have the benefit of many perspectives, much more than they could do on their own."
Dates for the Retailers' Choice Awards are July 13 at Culviate, July 23 at SNA 2014 and Aug. 21 at Farwest.
