Bad Links? | Skinner Nurseries acquires Peachtree City locationSkinner Nurseries, a dominant supplier of green goods in the southern United States, has announced the acquisition of three new branches in the metro Atlanta market. These centers - formerly Southeastern Wholesale Nurseries - are strategically located in Norcross, Marietta and Peachtree City, just outside the I-285 loop for easy accessibility to the downtown and burgeoning suburban areas. The new locations officially opened as Skinner Nurseries on May 23 and are fully operational. Although Skinner Nurseries has been serving the Atlanta market for more than 30 years on a direct-ship basis, the new centers offer the opportunity to provide a full one-stop shop service to the nation's second-fastest-growing market. Find Skinner Nurseries at the following Atlanta-area locations: 407 Highway 74 North, Peachtree City. 1556 West Oak Drive, Marietta. 5330 Old Peachtree Road, Norcross. "In keeping with Skinner Nurseries' vision of being the preeminent supplier of green goods in the South, the metro Atlanta openings are a tremendous step to fully servicing the region's largest hub. With an extensive product offering that covers all of the landscape contractor's needs, we are very excited about providing the rapidly expanding Atlanta market with a one-stop landscaping solution. We anticipate continued growth in the area and are committed to optimizing our customers' buying experiences with Skinner Nurseries," said Bud Eskola, regional vice president. Skinner Nurseries, which operates two growing farms in Central Florida and now more than 20 strategically located distribution centers across the southern United States, is one of the fastest growing suppliers of green goods in the Sun Belt. This announcement follows closely the recent site acquisitions in Charlotte, N.C., and metro Washington, D.C. area. |
