For more than 30 years, we have offered our customers a variety of product options for every occasion. It’s what has made us one of the largest and most highly recognized floral networks in the world. Our brand strength lies in our incredible database of proven flower buyers, our multi-million dollar, multichannel marketing efforts, our customer rewards programs, and much more. But we also know that local florists bring their own strengths to the table: their knowledge of the local community and their ability to provide locally purchased products and to meet certain specific customer needs that we simply cannot. That’s why we are seeking motivated, passionate business professionals who own an existing floral business who will commit to the 1-800-Flowers brand and system. With the combined goal to grow our brand and your business, we have designed our exclusive Florist Performance System.
