We established a strong working relationship with the Stour Valley team in late 2019, just months before the onset of Covid, which posed challenges for all businesses. This partnership has proven its resilience and strength across both of our organisations. In 2023, we agreed a new 25-year lease and, in collaboration with Stour Valley, undertook a complete refurbishment of the Canterbury Garden Centre. Despite the £2 million investment and extensive works, we kept the 7,000 sqm store open for trade throughout. Stour Valley shares our values of hard work and a commitment to continuous improvement.
