International Garden Centre Association

GCA South Africa and SANA are members of The International Garden Centre Association. The IGCA provides a unique forum for the sharing and exchange of information of other member garden centres worldwide. The highlight of the IGCA calendar is the Congress is held for one week in a different host country every year. This annual congress comprises of a business meeting where official matters are discussed and a tour that incorporates visits to various garden centres, introducing members to various business models as well as excellent networking opportunities.

IGCA also holds an Administrators meeting once a year in the future host country. This meeting is a forum where GCA Administrators from various countries come together to discuss issues that are important to their individual associations and its members. Administrators share the growth or challenges they have experienced during the past year in order to learn from each other.
