Tell us a bit about yourself and the business.
“I’m Hannah Watt, and I’m a florist at Lavender Lane, located right here on High Street in Lurgan. Lavender Lane has been a part of the Lurgan community for 21 years now.
“I actually started working here when I was just 16. We create floral arrangements for all sorts of occasions, from weddings and corporate events to those everyday special moments like birthdays and anniversaries”.
How did the business start?
“Lavender Lane first opened its doors in 2004 and has been steadily growing ever since. We’re proud of the reputation we’ve built and the relationships we’ve made with our customers over the years.”
Why is shopping local so important?
“Well, simply put, if people don’t shop locally, there won’t be any local shops left! There are certain things you just can’t replicate online.
“It’s so important to be able to speak to real people and receive the kind of personalised customer service you deserve. Online shopping can be so impersonal”.
What do you love most about Lurgan?
“Without a doubt, it’s the people. The people of Lurgan are an absolute pleasure to serve, and that’s what makes coming to work each day so enjoyable”.
