Approved Contractor Schemes

[Landscape Hub]

Approved Contractor schemes are a great way for Contractors to forge closer links with suppliers and manufacturers. When run correctly they can help boost the profits of both parties and benefit the client as well. In the landscape and horticultural industries there are a great deal of these schemes available, both formal and informal.

 

"Formal" ones might include a vetting process, annual fee and support in the form of training and promotional material, (the Marshalls Register is a good example). Informal schemes might simply be situations where suppliers have a list of traders names the'y're happy to provide.

 

We've been discussing the merits of these schemes over on Landscape Hub -Approved Contractor Schemes. We'd be interested if you run or know of a scheme in the Arb sector and would encourage Arbtalk members to look into joining these schemes. They can be a terrific way to boost your business !
