Artificial flowers are cool again, according to Telegraph UK who reported that sales of artificial flowers are up 84% at Marks & Spencer. That's impressive considering that artificial flowers were onced associated by many with cheap restaurants. However, the techniques to make artificial flowers have become more sophisticated and now they are remarkably similar to the real thing.
If you're looking to buy artificial flowers for your business, then we have some tips for you:
It's best to buy artificial flowers from wholesalers as you can get them for really cheap. Here are a few ways to find them:
— Local trade fairs are common avenue where wholesalers promote their products to get customers. It's good for you as a buyer as well, since you can meet them face to face to learn about the industry and their product. And, hopefully, negotiate a good deal.
However, local trade fairs don't stay all year long. If this doesn't work out, you'll need to take this search effort online.
— Online forums like this can be an easy way to get an initial list of potential suppliers. You can also start a thread asking for suppliers' for a specific type of artificial flowers, there's a good chance you'll get decent recommendations from the community.
Be sure to vet all recommendations from the community as you are responsible for any loss should you encounter fraud.
