Greenbrier Nurseries, Roanoke, VA
|
|
|
Greenbrier has three retail locations, as well as 88 acres of production, and has been in business for almost 50 years. The retailer does $4.8 million at the retail sites, and $2.5 million in wholesale business.
This year, Greenbrier participated in an ABC Extreme Makeover: Home Edition in Blacksburg, Va., where it donated several products to the show.
It has a program called Greenbrier Grown to build name and perception. It also offers 10 or more of the same item for 10 percent off all the time. "That has built a lot of volume on things like mums, bag goods, Proven Winners, etc.," writes co-owner Jim Monroe.
The owners started a new company for wholesale distributing turf, landscape and nursery products, which has helped the production costs and filled a need in the market for those products. "Greenbrier Seed Co. has changed our whole perspective on buying," Monroe writes.
