Great News! Following the installation of our Store within a Store at both Melbicks and Huntingdon Garden & Leasure group, we are now looking to roll these out to both Cadbury G & L and Endsleigh. There has been enormous feedback from those that we have installed already, from the Garden & Leasure Group but also many others.

The benifits to garden centres having Black Country Metal works stores fitted is many fold. Our regular stand size is 10m x 4m, this is built by us using our own merchandisers which fitted together create a complete open fronted store. In addition we supply free standing 360 degree units for many of our products including our Fireside range and Sundial stand. This enables the garden centre to extend outward further across the floor, offering much more stock and providing an added dimension.

The increased sales potential with such high spec presentation and product is what encouraged garden centres to take this on board.
A joint management project between us and the garden centre means that responsibility lies with us both. We can both provide the stock, merchandisers and the initial set up, from there it needs to be the stores themselves that keep up the stock refill. So far it works very well,
and the feedback has been fantastic.

Here's a chance to get the real thing, BCMW quality mail boxes, all limited editions of 200 by Lumly Designs who'll be on the stand at the Spring Fair with us.These are absolutely fantastic, there's no getting away from it, nothing else can touch the quality and the designs. Shaking up the market at last, pulling away from the also rans', these have to be believed. Our most popular so far is the red one, our 'retro' mail box. We have several designs and as mentioned, these are limited editions and when they have gone Lumley Designs produce a new range.

Our Sundials are by far and away the best in the industry, the quality, design and durability surpassed all others, now we also sell the columns that these sit upon. It was obvious really, those in the market didn't do our sundials justice and our columns being of equally high spec to all of our products are very substantial and don't fall over. Now the full package is available to you and therefore your customers. Don't make them have to go elsewhere to get the column when they can get the whole thing from you.

Our outside taps have been a runaway success with many styles to choose from there's one for every type and design of garden. By far the most popular currently is the "Antique Bronze Robin", a cheerful: little guy the acts as the handle of the tap.

Demand outstripped supply in 2006, it was stunning. These fireside products are truly the hottest thing in garden centre hardware at the moment. Thats why we are having even bigger stocks for 2007 and an increase range including the much asked for log baskets. Fireplaces aren't just for winter it seems, it's an all year round product, fireplaces are both utilitarian and for show. So whether your customers have real fires or replacement version they'll need to dress them with fire sets, guards, coal buckets and log baskets, it's all about presentation. The merchandisers for this are 360 degree free standing units that your customers can walk round, so from all angles they look great!

In all colours that say 'Spring & Summer', our range includes tea lights, hanging lanterns, unique plants support and inimitable wellie range. Brighten up your stores and your customers, and put these items out in their respective merchandisers.
