Provender Nurseries is strengthening its connection with landscape architects and town planners with the introduction of a commercial sales branch.

Grant Beerling has joined the Provender team as commercial sales and will be managing the account for the aforementioned roles.

Part of Beerling’s remit will be to engage with landscape architects and organise visits to Provender sites for CPD related talks.

He is currently lecturing in Landscape Architecture at Greenwich University, and is an experienced senior landscape architect.

Commenting on the expansion, managing director, Richard McKenna, says: “Grant is a great addition to our team with an extensive knowledge of large commercial projects and long lead times. Grant has already organised and hosted some visits to site and is discussing some longer-term commercial projects already.”
