Scottish show comes of age: Better organisation, a new venue and improved format have transformed loG Scotsturf

After 23 years, Scotland's grounds care, turf and landscape show "has grown up from being an awkward teenager into a good-looking 20-something", according to sales manager Nicky McGarry. Getting to this stage has involved some growing pains, she said."It has been growing for a few years now, but before - when it was held in the Highland Hall - it had spilled over into an adjacent hall that was like a wind tunnel, which turned exhibitors blue with cold." McGarry put the revival of the show's fortunes down to a larger team of organisers with a broader range of expertise, combined with the event finally having a format and venue that best meets the industry's needs.
