Converted Organics filling retail pipeline

Boston-Converted Organics Inc. has stepped up its entry into the turf and garden market by shipping over 14 tons of its all-natural Lawn & Turf 8-1-4 and Flower & Garden 4-1-8 fertilizers to Baltimore-based distributor Commerce Corp., a member of Gro Group’s North American network of lawn and garden distributors. Gro Group distributors service over 90 percent of the independent lawn and garden retailers in the U.S. and Canada. “Converted Organics’ network of distributors and, by extension, our entry into the retail lawn and garden center market, continues to grow,” said Converted Organics Pres. Edward Gildea. “Commerce Corp. is a premier Gro Group distributor and we are pleased to be shipping both our Lawn & Turf and Flower & Garden fertilizers to them. The Gro Group network is an important group of independent retailers with an extensive customer base, and Converted Organics looks forward to supplying our products to other Gro Group distributors.”
