This September, Source Garden, the gardening industry’s newest responsible sourcing event in Europe, will make its debut. The new show, which is being held in conjunction with Glee from September 10–12 at the NEC Birmingham, is a distinctive sourcing platform that brings together global responsible manufacturers and retailers, garden centers, brands, and contractors who are interested in discovering new sourcing and private label opportunities.
The greatest ethically sourced garden products will be offered by Source Garden, which also claims to be the ideal place to network with potential new suppliers. Visitors can discover fresh concepts and inspiration that support fair trade and ecologically responsible practices in a variety of areas, including supply chain services, garden tools, pets, and outdoor entertainment.
“I’m so excited to launch Source Garden in September,” stated Suzanne Ellingham, sourcing director of Source Garden. Our goal is to be the premier gathering place for sustainable garden products, bringing together international manufacturers and suppliers with companies aiming to launch new product lines. Get a firsthand look at the high caliber of the materials and speak with reputable exhibitors—all of whom have passed an audit—about how they might realize your ideas. Source Garden is in an ideal location to foster innovation, inspire creativity, and expand understanding of ethical and sustainable goods and production processes. Our passion is establishing connections: uniting the most brilliant minds in the field, tying together every link in the retail supply chain, and making sure our customers get exactly what they want.
The Source Garden team collaborates with international organizations and governments to bring together top suppliers and manufacturers. A variety of manufacturers with various specialties from seven distinct industry areas will be present at the first show:
