A fresh approach to creating attractive, functional and economical Retail Garden Centers
|
|
Cravo can help you create your Retail Garden Center by creating the ideal environment for annuals, perennials, indoor house plants, and gift and check out areas. The Cravo greenhouse structure can be covered with insulated metal roofs, polycarbonate and of course retractable roofs. Decide how you want to lay out your retail center and then choose the roof covering that best suits.

Customer Comments:
"The most incredible environment for plants and people"
Mark Bigei, Als Garden Center, Sherwood OR
"Our Cravo Retractable Roof Greenhouses extend our retail season with year round protection against weather extremes. It has also enabled us to provide a comfortable shopping environment for our customers and ideal conditions for our plants. The roll up walls of our Cravo houses allows easy customer flow while maximizing product visibility around the remainder of the nursery. We enjoy the inside protection with the flick of a switch and that we can create outdoor benefits in minutes."
Merrifield Garden Center, Fairfax VA

The house is versatile, attractive and customer friendly. Our customers love it and they shop longer. In fact, they don't want to leave!"
