Ian Forsyth, Owner of SevenOaks Garden Centre Ian Forsyth, Owner of SevenOaks Garden Centre

SevenOaks Garden Centre was purchased by Ian Forsyth in 2001 and has grown steadily in both size and popularity since then. The only garden centre in the picturesque Welsh market town of Ruthin, the name SevenOaks comes from Ian’s home town of Sevenoaks in Kent.

Like its namesake, SevenOaks Garden Centre weathered a potentially disastrous storm in the summer of 2006 when a burglary was followed only a day later by a devastating
electrical fire which all but destroyed the garden centre.

The determination to keep going after the fire, saw owner Ian Forsyth, his family and staff running the business from a portakabin - and the loyal SevenOaks customers continued to arrive. Since then SevenOaks has risen like phoenix from the ashes and taken the opportunity to re-build, improve and expand its ranges.
