Andersons

Andersons is a complete range of gardening essentials for garden centres to stock and sell. It covers the everyday items your customers come in for: spades, forks, gloves, bags and a wide selection of garden sundries. Instead of piecing the category together from several suppliers, you can fill the shelves from a single range.

Andersons has supplied gardeners since 1825. More than 200 years of trading has made it a name shoppers recognise, and that recognition counts at the point of sale. Every product arrives retail-ready and the packaging is built for display and consistency across the range.

If you're a garden centre looking for a recognised product range with pricing that leaves room for a healthy margin, add Andersons to your range.

Mulch
Mulch is a glove brand built around one idea: a different glove for every job. Each pair is designed for a specific task, so your customers pick the right one instead of making do. For delicate work like potting or seeding, the thinner Wild Thing keeps enough feel to handle plants without damaging them. For heavier jobs like landscaping, the robust Tough Glove helps protect against blisters. As each glove is matched to a real task, customers walk away with something suited to the work in front of them.

These gloves also stand out on-shelf. The quirky names and eye-catching patterns give your display far more pull than standard gardening gloves.

Mulch also makes a range of carbon steel gardening tools: spades, forks and hand trowels for gardeners who want something built to last. Every tool carries a straightforward guarantee. If it snaps, Mulch repairs it free of charge. That takes the risk off the customer, justifies the premium price, and tells your shoppers the tools are made to hold up.

Add Mulch to your store for a range with real shelf appeal.

Andersons Repair Shop

If you run a garden centre, you're probably losing sales without realising it.

Think about the customers buying hanging baskets, fencing and other items that need fixings. Do they pick up the hardware from you, or do they leave and buy from the shop down the road? For many garden centres, the answer is the latter.

Andersons Repair Shop closes that gap. It's a range of retail-ready hardware designed to sit right alongside relevant products, so the customer buys the fixings from you, rather than going elsewhere.

For a small job, a customer won't want a full bag of screws, so the packaging is re-sealable and easy to store until the next project. The packaging is also fully compostable, which appeals to the growing number of customers upcycling old furniture and watching their environmental impact. It gives them one more reason to pick it off your shelf.

Add Andersons Repair Shop to your range and capture the hardware sales you're currently losing to other local stores.

Quintessentially

Quintessentially is a range of house plaques, door numbers and mats that let homeowners add personality to their home. It's a category that sells well from a small footprint.

The range comes on a spinner stand designed for tight retail spaces. It takes up minimal floor space, arrives with a free branded header, and sits neatly at the counter or in any key spot around your store. In a garden centre where every metre is crucial, it puts a full range in front of customers without costing valuable display space.

Demand for house signage is climbing, too. As home deliveries keep rising, clear and legible door numbers matter more than ever, and more customers are looking for them. With a choice of backing plaques and numbers, shoppers can find the right match for their home, and you can stock a category with growing pull.

Add Quintessentially to your store for a compact display that turns spare counter space into sales.

Andersons & Mulch at Glee 2026 | What did we showcase?

Glee 2026 was a great opportunity to speak with garden centre buyers from across the country. Vistors were able to get a feel for our products in person, and they had the opportunity to speak with our team about the Centurion Group, and how Andersons & Mulch fits under the umbrella.

The theme for this year's stand was a golf course. The idea for this was to encourage people to have some fun and get people to come and discover our products. Visitors were able to enjoy seven mini courses, each with their own focus.

Hole 1: Ironmongery
Hole 2: Tools
Hole 3: Sundries & Watering
Hole 4: Andersons Repair Shop Hardware
Hole 5: Twine
Hole 6: Mulch & ProTask Gloves
