Prosper Garden Centre Buying Group Welcomes New Member


Prosper Garden Centre Buying Group is delighted to announce that Henry Street Garden Centre has joined its network of award-winning centres. This strategic move aligns with Prosper’s ongoing growth plan, which focuses on strengthening its membership with family-owned independent garden centres.


Terry Head, Stewarts Retail & Marketing Director and Chairman of Prosper, commented: “At our annual strategic meeting, we identified independent, family-owned garden centres that align with our values and bring valuable experience to the group. Henry Street Garden Centre is a perfect fit, reinforcing our commitment to collaboration and excellence in the industry.”


“Now, with ten independent, family-owned businesses working together, our collective strength is more important than ever. In these challenging economic times and at the beginning of a crucial season, seeing our members unite to share knowledge, enhance efficiencies, and grow together is inspiring. We are excited about the opportunities that the addition of Henry Street will bring to the group.”


Alan Goold, one of the Henry Street Business Partners, says: “We are very pleased to become part of the Prosper Group. As a family-run business for over 100 years, we have weathered and benefited from the ever-changing horticultural industry, and we feel this is the right next step in an ever more competitive market. We look forward to working in cooperation with a group of like-minded businesses to help benefit both our customers and suppliers going forward.”


The addition of Henry Street Garden Centre marks another milestone for Prosper Buying Group, which continues to champion excellence, innovation, and shared success within the horticultural retail sector.
