Local Investment in Rural Bristol

Park Garden CentresIn the year of its 80th Birthday, the Independent family run business in North Bristol unveils exciting new plans for redevelopment.

After an extremely successful few years for Phil Hodges and the team at Almondsbury Garden Centre, the independent family run firm is very much looking to the future after the recent sale of its sister stores in Lechlade and Cheddar, with ambitious redevelopment plans for the 80 year old site in the heart of Almondsbury.

“We are extremely excited about the plans for redevelopment at Almondsbury.   It is important to my family and I, that we do rebuild the garden centre, for both the community and the business itself.   The support from our customers both far and wide is one of the main reasons for ensuring that we have a building and facilities that match the quality of our products and our team. ” Added Phil Hodges, Managing Director, Almondsbury Garden Centre

The 18 acre site on Over Lane will begin an extensive rebuild in late May of 2014 and will be due for completion in the spring of 2015.   The plans will see the demolition of the existing 4 greenhouses, which will be replaced with one state of the art greenhouse which will also follow the natural curve of surrounding landscapes.

The plans will again be on display from October 1st along with suggestion boxes with ideas on the interior plans as well as design ideas for the new building.   “We now want to engage with our extended family to find out what they would like to see inside our new centre.   We welcome ideas on our brand, colour schemes, uniforms, products as well as any other suggestions that you feel will help our fantastic local business grow ” added Phil Hodges.

“We have had a successful business in Bristol for 80 years and we see no reason why it will not be around for 80 more.   We are building for the future, a legacy for our children and somewhere that inspires all gardeners.   Large or small, long or short, balcony or terrace, we have something for you, an unrivalled passion, a superb product and soon a garden centre to match. ”
