John Woods made its first public appearance as an independent business at the recent Four Oaks trade show.
The company, which emerged as a stand alone nursery business after Notcutts decided to focus on retail, took on the name John Woods in reference to the grower who established the Notcutts nursery in 1749.
Former Notcutts Nurseries managing director, John Lord, told Commercial Grower that the firm will be continuing its good relationship with Notcutts, and will be focusing on added value for the garden centre buyer through initiatives such as new interactive websites.
Lord also said that one of the key factors in the transfer had been the retention of his team of staff, allowing the firm to get the new business off the ground quickly.
John Woods will also be launching a number of new initiatives at the upcoming Glee show.
