The GCA represents leading garden centres within the UK and worldwide as part of its membership of the International Garden Centre Association (IGCA).
The GCA Chief Executive, Peter Burks said: “We had a joyous evening celebrating our overall champion of champions and our ‘Garden Centres of Excellence’ winners. They have all demonstrated tremendous tenacity, hard work and passion, and couldn’t be more deserving of these accolades. We were also delighted to announce our Associate of the Year, as voted for by our member garden centres and to present our Worrall Cup to the garden centre the judges’ felt entered the best marketing and community campaign too.
