British Garden Centres takes over two further Dobbies sites

British Garden Centres has announced that it has acquired Dobbies Rugby, as well as exchanging on the lease of the latter’s site in Northampton. These additions bring the chain’s total number of centres to 72.

The Rugby outlet is expected to open in March with Northampton following suit once the acquisition is complete. British Garden Centres will retain the current teams in both stores and, due to expected growth, there will also be a recruitment drive.

'A significant step forward'
Charles Stubb, director and owner of British Garden Centres, said: “These acquisitions represent a significant step forward in our continued growth and reinforce our commitment to becoming the leading garden centre group in the UK. By integrating these centres into our portfolio, we aim to expand our customer base and provide even more growth opportunities.”
