Delivering the goods - time after time

Every time we make a delivery we ask for feedback on the service, delivery, and the overall condition of the plants. The last batch to be analysed showed that on 98% of occasions we meet and exceed customer expectations. 85% of these people rate Johnsons overall service as better than other Nurseries.

To encourage participation in this research we put the response cards into a hat and award a Marks & Spencer Gift Voucher to the name drawn out. Lucky winner this time is Peter Goddard of Peter Goddard Landscaping of New Romney in Kent. Why don't you join in on your next delivery?

Wide Support for Greening the UK

The Horticultural Trades Association's Greening the UK campaign - which Johnsons of Whixley emphatically supports - has received endorsement from key environmental and planning organisations following the publication of its report, 'Local Authorities' Commitment to Urban Planting'. The Environment Agency, CABE Space, the Planning Officers Society and Design for London have all expressed their backing for the campaign's aims and objectives. The campaign was also endorsed by the Rt Hon Hazel Blears MP in her foreword for the recent publication.
