The business has an established website with considerably development potential as it only accounts for 10% of turnover. The annual direct mailing campaign is sent to around 5000 customers every year and this also produces about 10% of turnover. As the business in summer season there are currently very few sales in winter and therefore considerable potential to develop sales for the Christmas market.
The main thrust of sales is at some of the major annual retail events which produce 70% of turnover – all with a positive cashflow in advance of dispatch of goods. These include the RHS shows like Chelsea Flower Show and Badminton Horse Trials and the CLA Game Fair.
