This is a well established and very profitable business offering floristry services to hotels, local companies, weddings and various other functions. The owner started the company at the beginning of 1999 and in that time has built up an enviable reputation for professionalism, service and product. Many of the clients are repeat customers, many of whom have a contract with the company for regular floral displays. Being a home based business; this sale could be attractive to a variety of potential purchasers. It would complement a florist shop by adding profit to the existing base, or could be operated by someone who does not wish to have a retail outlet.
