Situated in North East Scotland, Brenchin Castle Centre has been successfully trading for over 23 years. The independent Garden centre also has a 70 acre country park that’s visited by local families daily, filled with activities for them to enjoy. They also hold large ticketed events for Halloween and Christmas.


Other facilities at the Garden centre include, a coffee shop, foodhall and gift shop. With a lot to offer the public, the 55 employees require communication support to help with operation and service across the Garden Centre.


For over 20 years, the staff have used Motorola radios across the site to provide instant communication support when operating each day. Aileen at the centre detailed the importance of radios;

‘We use the radios every day, 7 days a week and are an essential part of my staff’s working day.’

The radios have helped staff communicate across the shop floor, from till enquiries to barcode checks and general questions. Meaning they can provide a quicker service for customers. The radios are also used across the country park, so teams working indoors can maintain contact with staff across the country park.

Some of the radios were due to be replaced, so Aileen turned to Radio Solutions to purchase the upgraded radios.


Deciding on the Motorola XT185, the sleek and compact radio has a lot to offer for users. The Li-Ion batteries mean users can get up to 24 hours battery life before having to recharge.


With easy pairing and earbuds also included, the XT185 offers a full solution that works straight out of the box.


Aileen and the team are happy with how the radios are working across the centre and country park.


When asking how the overall services was from Radio Solutions, Aileen stated:


‘The person I dealt with on the telephone was extremely helpful and enabled me to immediately get the radios ordered.’
