Around 30 members of Melcourt’s unique national stockist network gathered at the Royal Agricultural Centre at Stoneleigh on 6^th October to celebrate a year in which sales were markedly up. The meeting also heard about plans for increased marketing support from the company to boost sales even further in the year ahead. In addition to matters relating to Melcourt, the gathering heard a keynote presentation from Tim o’Hare of Soil and Land Consultants, on the current state of the UK top soil market and the dangers inherent in using or supplying top soil which does not conform to the Contaminated Land Environmental Assessment (CLEA). 

“The annual gathering of stockists provides a superb opportunity to share news and views about our sector, to keep abreast of new developments, and to network informally,” says Andy Chalmers, Melcourt Sales & Marketing Director. “As well as the launch of our unique Design and Specifiers Guide and major enhancements to our web site, we are planning more activity for end-users of our products and a wholesale review of the way we keep in touch with our professional customer base.”
