Left to right: Gary Carvosso, Ian Hazon, David Cooling, Paul Cooling, Dwayne Ross at The House of Commons

The management and senior team remain unchanged and although I have reduced my hours, I am still a Director of the business and have become a Trustee of the new Trust.

Just some of the New owners of Coolings Nurseries Ltd at The House of Commons

We know that our team are loyal with a significant proportion now earning long service benefits. The group who have served 20+ years seems to grow each year too.

I retain a 25% shareholding on behalf of the next generation who are currently forging their own independent careers in other fields.

We had already planned a meal at The House of Commons to celebrate successful navigation of the Covid pandemic and this announcement gave us an extra reason to raise a glass.

In speeches, former shareholders David Cooling and Gary Carvosso paid tribute to Michael & Shirley Cooling who both passed away before the pandemic.

It was Michael who took on the half acre Chislehurst site from his father in the 1960s and developed it into a profitable business before relocating to the now famous 14-acre site in Knockholt in 1990. Coinciding with the change of ownership, Gary Carvosso (formerly MD) has now become Chairman, I have taken up the new role of Vice Chairman, and Dwayne Ross has been promoted to Managing Director. Ian Hazon continues as Production & Operations Director and my brother, David Cooling, has now left the business.

It is, arguably, the biggest change in the history of our third-generation company that will hopefully result in no obvious changes.

I am very pleased that, after the turmoil that the pandemic threw at us, a new level of stability has been secured for the long term.

Welcome to Coolings

3FROM COOLINGS New owners at Coolings Coolings Vice Chairman

In March 2022, 75% of the company was signed over to an Employee Ownership Trust (EOT).

Succession is always one of the hardest things for a family business and is a subject that has been discussed many times at Coolings over the last twenty years or so.

I regard these people as extended family & friends so when we learned about the possibilities that an EOT could offer, it was a straightforward decision.

Customers who hold in high regard the Coolings family connection & ownership will, I believe, see the creation of the new employee trust as a sustainable and socially responsible way of taking the business forward, where both the employees at Coolings and our amazing customers can continue to build a sustainable and fulfilling future for all.

This month we’re celebrating movement in the Feel Good Garden. Jon has carefully selected plants which move and rustle in the wind such as grasses, bamboos and Anemone, while Andy has picked products such as wind spinners and wind chimes for sound and added interest. Gardening is a great way for us, as humans to move and research shows that it is one of the best ways to keep fit, not only physically, but mentally too. If you’re not a fan of the gym, gardening could be a great alternative as our brains are distracted by nature when we’re in the garden so we are more likely to ‘work out’ for longer. Plus, it’s a great way to get your fix of vitamin D in the late summer sun. sinensis ‘Navajo’arching leaves turn deepfiery red in autumn.litre £13.99 (311052) Cortaderia selloana ‘Pumila’ white candy floss plumes of this dwarf pampas grass sway in the wind. litre £13.99 (188446) Feel

Quick to establish but dwarf in stature, this Pittosporum is the perfect choice for easy gardening. It grows naturally into a green globe so is a perfect choice to replace Box ball topiary. Also works well as a low hedge.
