PARSIPPANY — Tyler Cerbo, general manager of Cerbo’s Parsippany Greenhouse & Garden Center, has been named a national finalist for the 2026 Young Retailer of the Year Award, one of the highest honors for emerging leaders in the garden center industry.
The nomination was recently featured in the June edition of Green Profit magazine.

“This recognition reflects Tyler’s passion for both the horticulture industry and the community we serve. His vision has helped transform our greenhouse into a vibrant resource that supports gardeners and plant enthusiasts throughout every season,” said the Cerbo team.
The Young Retailer of the Year Award celebrates outstanding young professionals who demonstrate excellence in garden center management, leadership, innovation, and community engagement. The award winner will be announced on July 13, 2026, during the industry’s national event in Columbus, Ohio.
