Huge GM and Stellantis fleet discounts added to CNLA member benefits The Canadian Nursery Landscape Association (CNLA) is thrilled to announce its popular programs with Stellantis and General Motors are better than ever, offering substantial fleet discount savings to all members. CNLA members have access to discounts of more than $11,000 off brand new GM and Stellantis trucks, as well as many new vehicles among each company’s respective product lineup. CNLA has a strong working relationship with Stellantis and GM, and will continue to work with them on building such programs. Keep an eye on the CNLA social media accounts and monthly e-mail membership updates for any developments to vehicle savings, as well as updates about all national member benefit programs. business is immense,” he said. “A well-organized, progressive garden centre will use staff resources to paint, to build, to renovate, to train, to invest in all sorts of things that can make your garden centre more attractive and run more efficiently once you get into April and the floodgates open,” Art continued. “The things you can do to prepare for that are important, and that’s the beauty of January, February and March. If you use the time wisely, you can have significant operational improvements.” Another reason to stay open in winter is to provide an indoor, tropical oasis where customers can browse amongst water features, fountains and ponds that creates an escape from the dreary weather. “It allows customers to maybe pick up one, two, three plants and bring a little bit of that colour and sunshine back home with them,” Vanden Enden said, adding that garden centres can be “an oasis at your doorstep in the wintertime for a lot of people.” Discovering niche events that bring people in is an ongoing process that may require some trial and error, as every garden centre has a demographic that differs from place to place. “Discovering the type of event that works in your area can only occur by trying something new,” said Robin Godfrey, chair of Garden Centres Canada. “This fall and winter, take a step outside of the box and give workshops and community events a try, as they may end up being a hit.” With the make, model, trim level and year of the vehicle offered by GM or Stellantis, CNLA staff can let you know precisely what discount is being offered.
