We are delighted that the Garden Centre Association presented both Garsons Esher and Garsons Titchfield with multiple awards at its annual awards for the South East region on July 11, 2024.

Garsons Titchfield, Hampshire, was named third in the headline award of Destination Garden Centre of the Year, a true testament to our hard-working team.

Garden Centre Association judge Alyson Haywood, who visited 60 independent garden centres, thoroughly enjoyed her visits and highlighted that while the weather wasn't so kind during her 12-week judging window, all of the stores were positively upbeat. She went on to say, "It was a pleasure to judge the South East region. The centres were looking great, with some examples of creativity and innovation and some super plant ranges, too."

We also proudly won first place (jointly by Garsons Esher and Garsons Titchfield) in the Outdoor Living Award for Best Outdoor Living Retailer and scooped up first (Garsons Esher) and second (Garsons Titchfield) place in the Best Destination Farm Shop Award.

Garsons Titchfield went on to win second place for Best Destination Garden Centre with the Customer Service Award for Best Customer Service. 

Garsons Esher took the first spot for Best Destination Garden Centre for Indoor Lifestyle Award for Best Indoor Lifestyle Retailer for our wide offering of gifts and homeware.

We are truly thrilled to be recognised across a broad spectrum of our retail departments. Our managers and teams should feel very proud – a great way to celebrate the summer for us.
