"Coming to Glee has been absolutely fantastic. There's no better way to meet new customers in garden retail. Over 100 leads, all positive, and the great thing is we met the decision-makers."
Marc Nicklen,

"It’s our first time at Glee. We’re fishing in a new place and so far it’s going well! We’ve already met four garden centres that want craft that we wouldn’t have met anywhere else, I can’t ask for more than that. At the other shows we do we meet all the same people."
