Targeted marketing and a TV campaign gain recognition for innovative Norfolk gardening brand.
Ground-breaking gardening firm Plantgrow won the Marketing Innovation award, sponsored by Shorthose Russell, at the 2021 Norfolk Business Awards.
“Just making the final shortlist felt like a real achievement for us, given that the company’s only being going for about five years,” says production manager Daniel Suggit. “To emerge as the winner felt terrific – especially when we were up against some really good, established companies.”
The awards evening, shortly before Christmas, turned out to be full of surprises. “We were also in the running for Business of the Year – which really blew our minds,” Mr Suggit reveals.
“We knew it wasn’t a category you could enter – the judges drew up the candidates from the entries to all the categories – so we were absolutely thrilled even to be on the shortlist. It shows the ethos and the work we do here is noted and appreciated.”
