We know Christmas is a little way off but we would like to take the opportunity of reminding you about our scheme that we have run very successfully with many local schools over the past few years. It has grown every year by word of mouth and last year over 50 schools took part and benefited from the scheme. This year we are looking to expand it even further. The idea has raised significant funds for Parent Teacher Associations, School Trips etc. and is very simple to administer and requires no hard selling.
In the run up to Christmas the school contacts parents via a letter, school Christmas fair or other means offering them the opportunity to buy a top quality Christmas tree from the school at prices below what they would pay in Garden Centres. Orders are collected in and sent to us on a single form. We deliver the required number of trees to your school at a specified time and date at wholesale prices and the school makes a good profit for minimal input.
If you have run the scheme before you will know how simple it is. However please read the information sheet as there are one or two updates with regards to sizes, species and changes to orders.
We a long established company and are members of The British Christmas Tree Growers Association.
We buy thousands of trees a year so obtain the very best prices
We only buy top quality trees and are happy to provide references from other schools who are already taking advantage of the deal.
No cash outlay is required. We only invoice you once the trees have been delivered.
There is no risk to the school as you are only ordering trees that have been pre-ordered by parents.
You are selling something that nearly everyone buys at Christmas
The school makes a good profit.
Below you will find an example of the figures involved. We are happy to deal with any quantity from 30 upwards. Some schools we deal with buy over 100 each year. We are afraid prices have gone up by around £2 per tree this year due to a europe wide shortage, the pound/euro exchange rate and fuel costs. We have tried to keep these increases to a minimum and have not compromised the quality of the trees in any way.
If you are interested in running the scheme please contact us to reserve your delivery date as soon as possible as certain days get very busy. If you need a size not listed on the form just ask. We can supply all sizes of trees up to 40ft!
For example we supply you with 30 6/7ft Nordmann Fir non-drop Christmas Trees for a delivered price of £18 each. The retail price of these will be about £35. If the school has charged £28, the parents have still got a substantial discount and the school has made £300 with very little effort and only one person is needed to administer the scheme. We only invoice you after delivery so you have collected the money in before there are any bills to pay. As an added incentive for every order over 50 trees we will supply the school with one extra 7ft tree free for its own use, 2 extra for orders over 75, 3 extra for orders over 100.
Last year we supplied trees to Wimbledon High School, Putney High School, Falcon School For Boys, Bishop Gilpin School, Kingston Grammar and Wimbledon Chase School amongst many others as well as supplying display trees for such locations as Westminster Cathedral and Ikea. The schools would be pleased to provide a reference if required.
We do hope this idea is of interest to you. Please read the attached information sheet and do not hesitate to contact either Trish or myself at the office if you have any queries. If you decide to go ahead just ring to book your delivery date and start taking orders. We are a small local company based in Reigate who values all its customers and we can promise you very good personal service.
We look forward to hearing from you shortly.
