Weak delete, as business without strong claim of notability. The only claim in the article is that a large number of people shop here, which sounds impressive, but if there aren't independent reports about this place/business, that doesn't matter (Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)). I did find this, which appears to be an independent publication, but likewise appears to be a self-serving puff piece (PR "interview"?). DMacks (talk) 15:49, 20 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

DMacks: I would take those figures with a pinch of salt, I live roughly two miles away from said garden centre, and can safely say, it cannot cope with ten million shoppers a year. 100k is more realistic, maybe. Snöggletög Nightfury ^{Happy Christmas!!} 16:01, 20 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the followup. 10M is impressive, but we can only say it if there's a cite from an independent source. And if that number were true, there would certainly be lots of other in-depth independent reports about such a hugely-popular{{cn}} and highly-successful{{cn}} business.

Delete. Non-notable business. Ajf773 (talk) 17:35, 20 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Further consensus - I know the majority are !delete votes but AfD appears to have been forgotten Nördic Nightfury 09:10, 28 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Strong delete Hilariously irrelevant subject. KaisaL (talk) 17:28, 28 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Wyevale Garden Centres. There is 151 of these apparently, and I see no reason why this one is particularly important (besides some puff pieces), and we are by no means going to go about creating 151 stubs for each of these stores. We have an article for Walmart. We do not have 11,593 stubs on particular Walmarts in particular towns. TimothyJosephWood 20:30, 28 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect per above. No need for a standalone article. Lepricavark (talk) 05:55, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per one of 151 non-notable places. Bearian (talk) 19:46, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
