Wholesale Cut Flower Market
Business Description
Founded in 2017, this business is the first 100% local and chemical-free wholesale flower market in the United States. Over 80% of cut flowers purchased in the United States are grown overseas. This market serves a growing demand for sustainable floral products, offering fresh, local blooms sourced from 21 partner farms. The business has earned a reputation for quality and sustainability, fostering strong relationships with both floral buyers and suppliers. With a commitment to ethical practices and environmentally friendly products, the company stands out in a rapidly growing industry.
This wholesale market operates three days a week and primarily serves the Twin Cities Metro area, as well as clients in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and the Dakotas.

Customer loyalty is high, and the business has seen consistent demand that frequently surpasses supply, offering significant potential for growth.

- This business serves a growing demand for sustainable floral products, offering fresh, local blooms to the Twin Cities Metro area, as well as clients in MN, WI, ND and SD. It has earned a reputation for quality and sustainability, so customer loyalty is high. The business has seen consistent demand that frequently surpasses supply, offering significant growth potential. Direct sales from area farms present competition in pricing and “feel-good” factor, but lack the convenience and selection of a wholesale hub.
- Opportunities for Growth
- Currently woman-owned and operated, the business is primed for expansion with numerous growth opportunities. These include further partnerships with local farms, the introduction of exclusive flower varieties, and the potential for expanding educational workshops. The business model is simple but impactful, making it an ideal acquisition for a buyer ready to scale operations.
