COMPO Once Again Recognized for Best Value in Garden Care

Münster (October 2026) – For the third year in a row, COMPO has taken the top spot for value for money in garden care: The leading provider of branded products for indoor and outdoor plants has once again been named the value-for-money winner in 2026. In the study conducted by DEUTSCHLAND TEST, the market research institute ServiceValue, and FOCUS MONEY, COMPO once again scored 100 points, securing the top spot in the garden care category.


COMPO Named Best Value for Money for Three Consecutive Years

COMPO was already recognized for offering the best value for money in garden care in 2024 and 2025. This top ranking in 2026 continues that streak and reaffirms the company’s commitment to offering high-quality products at fair prices.

“Being named the value-for-money winner three times in a row is a special validation for us,” says Andreas Rutsch, CEO of COMPO. “Consumers rightly expect high quality at a fair price. That is exactly what we aim to offer with our products every day. Especially in a challenging market environment, a compelling value-for-money ratio is particularly important for consumers and retailers alike. The fact that COMPO has once again achieved the top spot confirms that we are on the right track and serves as an incentive to continue on this path consistently.”

Focus on Quality and Fair Pricing

COMPO offers a wide range of products for caring for plants in the home and garden, from potting soil and fertilizers to lawn seed, as well as pest control and plant protection products. The company combines its commitment to high product quality with a compelling value proposition, consistent customer focus, and strong innovative capabilities.

“An excellent value for money is a key factor in purchasing decisions today and is therefore also of great importance to our retail partners,” says Andrea Strein, CSO of COMPO. “Our goal is to win over consumers with strong products and innovative solutions while offering retailers an attractive product range.”

Comprehensive Analysis Confirms Leading Position

For the “Price Winners 2026” study, approximately 73 million mentions of about 18,000 companies and brands were analyzed over the period from September 1, 2024, to August 31, 2026. As part of a social listening analysis, the study’s researchers analyzed public perception in the areas of price and overall impression.

In total, the data set includes, among other things, tens of thousands of online news articles and several million social media posts.
