Proflowers.com - The Art Of Fresher Flowers

Looking for a gift for that special occasion? Why not sending your loved ones a beautiful bouquet? Whether it’s birthday flowers, sympathy flowers, romantic flowers, “thank you” flowers, or flowers “just because”, you’ll find them in ProFlowers. ProFlowers has an amazing variety of flowers, plants, roses and gifts. You can search for that perfect gift by occasion – such as anniversary, birthday, wedding flowers, I’m sorry flowers, etc. – by type of flower - such as daisies, lilies, roses, tulips, etc. – or even by price or color. ProFlowers also offers gourmet gifts like chocolates and desserts, fresh fruit, seafood and gift baskets. Wrapped in cellophane, flowers are shipped in a specially designed gift box to ensure freshness during delivery. All flowers are shipped fresh from the growers to you or your recipient’s doorstep. Because they avoid extended stays in warehouses, trucks and florist’s coolers, ProFlowers is able to guarantee you the absolutely freshest flowers available.

“Since ProFlowers' launch in 1998, it has become the largest domestic grower-direct Internet flower provider. ProFlowers sells a wide variety of fresh-cut flowers, mixed bouquets and potted plants, shipped fresh from the grower. The products sold on the site are chosen for their exceptional quality and uniqueness as well as their freshness. ProFlowers boasts unparalleled customer service, quality products and a 7-Day Freshness Guarantee for each order shipped.”

ProFlowers has developed an interesting business model. It operates an e-commerce marketplace for perishable goods that offers fresh, high quality products direct from the supplier to the customer. Unlike other flower retailers, ProFlowers oversee every part of the process, from the planting of the flowers to the flower delivery itself. They send fresh from the fields and bypass middlemen, which means better flowers and a better value.

Is ProFlowers really changing how America sends flowers? Why are there no deliveries on Sunday?
