Floom is a VC-backed start-up
on a mission to become the first vertically integrated florist software
company. We believe flowers are the most universally accepted and loved
gift, but seasonality and environmental impact have been too-long
ignored. Since launching in Feb'16 we’ve been voted one of the top UK
100 startups two years in a row, created long-lasting relationships with
florists across all of the UK and New York, whilst taken orders from
loyal customers in 114 different countries.
Today we give florists
the tools to create and deliver beautifully crafted bouquets to our
online communities. They’re hand-made and hand-delivered with the Floom
seal of approval. Florists receive a backend management tool, and
customers receive more options, in more areas, by vetted florists, with
the ultimate convenience of a seamless check-out and what everyone
really wants - confirmation of safe receipt in their loved one’s hands.
In
the next 12 months, our online offering will grow as we launch in 5 new
cities across the UK and US, and introduce the very first vertically
integrated florists SaaS. From inventory management, to a wholesale
shop, and even website builders and POS systems. We will offer florists
everything they need, ultimately allowing customers to get exactly what
they ordered in the picture, on the very same day.
Our plans for
2018 and beyond are bold, and our founder, existing team and investors
are an experienced bunch of serially successful tech entrepreneurs and
creative brand builders looking to take risks, grow rapidly, and focus
on unicorn status.
