As much as people hate to admit it, Christmas is fast approaching. The festive countdown is already ticking away for those preparing to ensure this years\u2019 Christmas tree beats last year\u2019s efforts. For retail businesses, Christmas has been at the forefront of their minds since before the Easter Eggs were back on the shelves. That\u2019s particularly true for Garden Centres whose displays get more magical and enticing every year. For them, the race is on to capture the imaginations of shoppers who just can\u2019t get enough seasonal illuminations and embellishments to create that \u2018instagrammable\u2019 moment.<\/p>\n

The evolution of the Christmas Market<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Once upon a time, \u2018Christmas market\u2019 either meant a trip to Germany or a chilly weeknight trip to a council-run Victorian evening with a plethora of stalls and a standard hot chestnut seller. Now the craze has spread to every corner of the UK \u2014 including garden centres. Such is the need to increase footfall and tempt physical shoppers away from the world of online shopping, retailers need to stand out and offer something unmissable to encourage visitors.<\/p>\n

View Garden Centre<\/a>, based in Rayleigh, Essex, has taken the Christmas market and given it a Scandi make-over this year. Their Nordic Christmas Market is full of traditional Christmas Fare, as well as Scandinavian delights. View have pulled out all the stops to ensure their customers have an unforgettable visit and they called on Solopress to help with their finishing touches.<\/p>\n

The team at View very kindly allowed us to film the production, installation and unveiling of the stunning signage we were able to create together. It was great to watch its progress from guillotine to grotto!<\/p>\n
