The sale of the group's garden centre operation could go through imminently.
NWF Group's sale of its six garden centres is close to completion, according to its company secretary, Rob Andrew.

"We hope to finalise it over the next month," he said of the process.

NWF officially set the wheels in motion in August when it reported its full-year results.

At the time the group said it expected the sale to complete later this year, however it would appear that a management buy-out is heading the pack along with Dobbies, according to Horticulture Week.
