After several false starts and a number of interesting projects I have alighted on Harrowden Turf – a local business supporting both b2b and b2c with three locations across the country.
Across five locations Harrowden Turf produces and sells a variety of garden turf, wildflower turf, topsoil and sedum for sale all over the UK. From a head office in Kettering, Harrowden Turf manages national trade sales as well as online sales via its Turfonline web platform. Turfonline offerings have expanded to include garden tools, fertilisers, soils and lawn treatments.
They pride themselves on their professionalism, reliability, integrity, and passion for delivering outstanding customer service. There is no room to stand still in such a competitive environment and our culture of innovation means our products and services evolve and are at the forefront of industry trends and developments.
Turfonline is a family run company that was borne out of the amalgamation of four of the UK’s most renowned regional turf companies. We boast a wealth of specialised growing skills and experience, coupled with in-depth local knowledge gained over more than 50 years in the turf industry. This has created true nationwide capability without the loss of that all-important local knowledge and experience.
Like Central Bedfordshire College it is refreshing to be doing everything myself. As the phone rings and they ask for the Social Media Manager, Advertising Manager, Exhibition Manager, PR, Marketing …..they’re all me. There’s a good team covering IT, Finance, Sales, Transport and the actual growing and harvesting teams with a great office location and two office dogs.
So, there is a chance to do some good things. There are two websites now although there were many more and we have a full(ish) set of social media platforms.
