"Serenata Flowers has revealed that it expects its sales to grow"
One of the top online flower retailers Serenata Flowers has revealed that it expects its sales to grow by about a third compared on previous year.
Due to last year economical downturn consumers were obviously reluctant to spend as much money on gifts as previous years. This was without a doubt evident in the merchant business.
Nevertheless Serenata has seen clear evidences that most customers start to come back to usual expenses on flowers and additional presents.
Peter Ahl, Managing Director of Serenata Flowers, said:
"Previous year was rough and individuals didn't spend as much cash on presents for Valentine's Day."
"However the signs are that this year will become different. We assume that our sales of cut flowers and plants, chocolates, wine and champagne will go up by 30%."
"The previous indication we obtained from Christmas proves that many are willing to start spending once more."
Serenata Flowers foresees its top-selling red roses for Valentines Day as the most popular gift. The company offers classic romantic valentine's flowers favourites for a special proposed price of £29.99. It also expects the sales of Cross My Heart bouquet to bloom (49.99), which includes a dozen red roses and a blend of other flowers.
Serenata can arrange valentine day's flowers as well as mother's day flower delivery free of charge on any moment in time of the day. Serenata recently introduced an "avoid the school run" delivery service including early morning and late afternoon and evenings. The company also makes sure that customers can have their flowers delivered on Saturday mornings.
