Get Connected with Best Practices Garden Centers...
Insights from the Most Profitable Leaders in The Garden Center Group
Tim Quebedeaux, RetailKPI
The Annual P&L Study has been an industry-exclusive benchmark since 2004 and remains one of the most comprehensive financial studies in garden retail. While the Weekly Department Review (WDR) tracks sales and margins by category, the Annual P&L Study goes deeper—analyzing sales, expenses, and key performance metrics, and comparing results across Best Practices, High Achievers, and the group as a whole.
In this session, Tim Quebedeaux will highlight the key performance indicators (KPIs) from the 2025 P&L Study, including inventory turns, margin targets by category, and Gross Margin Return on Inventory Investment (GMROII). Understanding and managing the numbers can drive profitability.
What sets Best Practices Centers apart? What's the secret sauce? Is there a formula for success? In this data-driven session, Tim will take a closer look at what the most profitable leaders in The Group are doing differently—and how those strategies translate into stronger performance. Through real-world comparisons, key metrics, and actionable insights, you’ll discover practical ideas and proven approaches you can apply within your own operation.
Even if you did not participate in the 2025 study, this session offers valuable takeaways. You’ll gain a clearer understanding of critical financial metrics, uncover trends shaping the industry, and walk away with practical insights to help elevate and improve your business performance.
