daFlores Hopes to Capture Market Share of Flowers Sold on Valentine's Day by Expanding Services Internationally

daFlores now delivers flowers to more than 25 countries across the world.

Valentine's Day continues to be the number one holiday for florists year after year.  According to the Society of American Florists (SAF), for fresh flower purchases, Valentine's Day captures 36% of holiday transactions and 40% of the holiday's dollar volume.

This year daFlores, an international flower service company, hopes to grab a chunk of that market share by helping people celebrate Valentine's Day in Venezuela, Italy, Russia and all around the world with their online international delivery system. 

"At daFlores we want to spread the love around the world and make sure everyone can send flowers to their love ones no matter where they are on Valentine's Day," said CEO and President of daFlores, Francisco Bustos. "We have worked really hard to offer flower delivery services, not just for one or two countries, but across the entire globe." 

It was reported that 91% of men give flowers to their significant other on Valentine's Day in America, however flowers play a major part in Valentine's Day in Mexico and other countries as well. Floral arrangements in Mexico are not only a popular gift to give to a loved one, but also to give to friends, family and are used as decorative pieces. daFlores provides customer service in English and Spanish in order to better service Spanish speaking customers on this special holiday. 

"We're always out and about, locating the absolute best florists in Europe, the Americas and Asia so you can send the most amazing flowers out to someone you love," Bustos said. "We have improved our services to become even faster so you can send flowers anywhere with fast delivery." 

deFlores hand- picks their network of florists around the globe and 100% satisfaction is guaranteed. Their arrangements also come with a weeklong freshness guarantee.
