Our CEO, Pat Dahlson, and our Director of Purchasing, Pam Uranga, went to Mexico earlier this month to explore sourcing wholesale flowers from that region. They toured the flower growing regions and took some great pictures to share with you. These pictures don’t tell the whole story, but give a flair of the local markets. Hope you enjoy!
Pam with a test variety of giant white oriental lilies.

Visiting the Central de Abasto. Mexico City’s primary wholesale market for produce.
Here’s a wholesale bucket truck equivalent at the Tenancingo Flower Market. This picture is a bit amazing to me. How is all that stuffed so neatly and nothing is getting crushed??
Anyone need some glads?

Pam is checking out some new rose varieties at one of the rose growers.
Perhaps a wedding order being delivered?
