Our take

Flowerbx is a luxury D2C flower delivery service, offering fresh blooms and accessories delivered throughout Europe, as well as the East and West Coasts of the United States.

Clients are presented with a diverse selection of over 300 seasonal flower varieties to choose from. Operating at scale enables Flowerbx to directly source flowers from growers in the Netherlands, resulting in flowers that are not only fresher but also more cost-effective compared to those found in wholesale markets.

With funding under its belt, Flowerbx is strategically directing its attention to expanding its presence in the US market, broadening its product range, and advancing its logistics technology. This feeds into the startup's ambitious aspiration to establish itself as a premier provider of premium flowers in the United States.
