Glen Mar Forest Products

Executive Summary

The marketplace for nursery products and services is changing, both in nature and scope.  The consumer is more upscale, and the market is expanding.

During the last seven years, the number of U.S. households increased 10 percent to 140.9 million.  The National Association of Home Builders anticipates 903,000 new home starts this year, while there will be more than 4.5 million sales of existing homes, according to the National Association of Realtors.

These facts alone paint a future of opportunity for forest by-products.  But they do not stand alone.  A significant population change has occurred.  Baby boomers now dominate the housing market, the 45- to 56-year-old bracket will increase by 54 percent in the next four years, according to the U.S.  Department of Commerce.  Recently, 45 to 60 year old customers emerged as the nursery industry’s primary buyers, accounting for 50 percent of retail nursery sales.

Last year, a quarter of U.S. households spent an average of $500 each for landscaping (installing plant material in original or renovated landscapes). This helped retailers ring up over $5 billion in sales.

Glen Mar Forest Products will offer this growing customer base a new product line that will change the face of landscaping.  The product is called Rainbow Mulch™. This color enhanced shredded hardwood mulch is colorfast and environmentally safe.  It does not blow or wash away and is safe for all plants and animals.  The product is 100% organic and produced from virgin wood products.

The customer can choose from five rainbow colors:

  • Rainbow Gold
  • Rainbow Brown
  • Rainbow Green
  • Rainbow Grey
  • Rainbow White

Rainbow Mulch™ gives the customer a new landscaping tool that can change a ho-hum lawn into beautiful landscape.

Market Analysis Summary

Last year, a quarter of U.S.  households spent an average of $500 each for landscaping (installing plant material in original or renovated landscapes). This helped retailers ring up over $5 billion in sales.

The expanding, upscale landscaping market means more demand for the speciality nursery products.  Landscaping will be a project of high priority among new homeowners, who expect to spend an average of $3,500 on it.  Five percent estimate they will spend $10,000 or more.

Fifty-one percent of these landscape customers are male.  Fifty-six percent are 30 to 49 years old, and 46 percent are married with children.  Forty-nine percent are college-educated.  Fifty-one percent hold business or professional jobs, and 56 percent earn $30,000 or more.  Half live in the suburbs.

Glen Mar Forest Products will focus on two customer groups:

  • Wholesale Distributors: This group is the critical supplier to retail outlets and pivotal to the success of Rainbow Mulch™.
