Blue Diamond Group acquires 45th Garden Centre
9th August 2024Blue Diamond are pleased to announce that they have acquired Frosts Garden Centre at Woburn Sands, Buckinghamshire. Alan Roper, the CEO of The Blue Diamond Group said “Frosts Garden Centre is a thriving and respected family business with a unique brand and excellent reputation within the local community. Blue Diamond is proud to be the new owner of this aspirational Garden Centre. We intend to protect its heritage and core values whilst driving the business forward into the future and are delighted to welcome Frosts into the Blue Diamond portfolio.”
James & Jeremy Frost said “When our grandfather started this business in 1946, he could not possibly have foreseen how Frosts would develop - it has been our family’s passion now for over 75 years. We are not getting any younger, and there is no-one in the Frost family to take over the reins. Therefore, when we received an approach from The Blue Diamond Group, to buy Frosts, we concluded that the time was right - not only for us, but also for the business.”
The Blue Diamond Group owns 44 garden centres in the UK and Channel Islands and is committed to running aspirational centres which provide their customers with an exceptional shopping and dining experience. This acquisition will move the Group turnover to £332m per annum. We welcome all the Frosts team into the Blue Diamond family, and we look forward to getting to know everyone in the coming months.
