The products in the range of potting mixes and soil improvers are, regarding the statements of trading companies, playing a very important role in sales. In gardencenters as well as in DIY-outlets. This importance has to be taken into consideration - especially because the profits are made in a very short term of the year.

Price- and quality concepts has to be adapted to all the different profiles of customers. But one thing is always for sure: No matter what monetary level, functionality must be guaranteed. Only very few customers contact their shops in case a product of this price category as potting soil fails in their expectaitions. Instead this product will be avoided in future. Even worse, when this brand is a private label which is used also in other branches (e.g. food).
