Revealed: Glee's first Buyers Power Shortlist

The organisers of Glee have released the shortlist for their inaugural Glee Buyers Power List on Friday last week.

The list aims to recognise individual buyers and buying teams who have gone above and beyond to make a difference within the garden retail industry this year.

The shortlist contains the top nominations in each of the five categories, representing the leading 50-plus buyers and buying teams across the country. The industry can now cast their votes for their top three buyers or teams in each category. Individual category winners and a ‘winner of winners’ will be announced during a special Buyers Power List ceremony at Glee on Tuesday 15 September.

Voting closes on 28 August. To vote, log on using this link. Voting is open to everyone in the industry.
