The Garden Center Group Adds Christina Salwitz

The Garden Center Group has announced Christina Salwitz recently joined the group as visual merchandising coach, complementing its team of leading industry consultants.

Salwitz began her career at Nordstrom, and went on to be recognized repeatedly for her fresh, intuitive sales policies and marketing strategies. After feeling the pull of the outdoor landscape, she became a horticulturist, and realized that her experience with the principals of fashion marketing and merchandising translated seamlessly into her new role working with people who love plants.
