Gardenex, the UK federation for exporting manufacturers of garden and leisure products, has organised a group show of just under 60 companies at this year’s gafa/Spoga. Fourteen of these firms will be exhibiting in Cologne for the first time. Germany represents the biggest export market for the members of Gardenex. The federation claims that UK companies exporting garden products currently account for a market share of approximately 16 per cent in other countries of Europe.
