Those in search of the perfect floral arrangement for themselves or a loved one are spoiled for choice when it comes to finding florists in Cape Town. But when it comes to flowers, our customers have seen first-hand the benefits that come with choosing a local flower delivery company as opposed to a “big box” international company. There are a number of reasons for this:
1. The Freshest Flowers Possible
Customers do not need to risk receiving or sending a disappointingly sparse or wilting floral display. By going local, you’re ensuring that you or your loved one are receiving the freshest, prettiest and highest quality floral arrangement possible. At The Cape Town Florist, we even offer same day delivery for all orders placed Monday to Friday before 12pm.
2. Environmentally Conscious
Another important aspect of choosing local florists is the positive impact that this has on our planet. As we all struggle to reduce our carbon footprint, you can help save Mother Nature by choosing a local company that specialises in the use of regional and seasonal flowers and greenery. Whenever possible, we incorporate locally grown and obtained flowers. This saves tons in unnecessary petrol and emissions, while also guaranteeing you the brightest and freshest blooms possible.
3. Supporting the Local Economy
Shopping local means that you are helping to financially support your friends, your neighbours, and your family. Supporting the local economy comes with a load of benefits which don’t only benefit the shop owner.
4. Building Relationships
At The Cape Town Florist, we enjoy getting to know our customers and their personal preferences. Every time you place an order with us, we keep track of the bouquet or arrangement, as well as the type of flowers used. This gives us insight into what flowers you will likely enjoy for future arrangements, and allows us to make educated and useful suggestions every time you order.
5. Accountable
Unlike mega international floral companies, we have a physical address where we can be found innovating and creating during the week. If a customer is unhappy with a product, they can just as easily stop by our store as they can send us an email. Having a convenient location right in Cape Town holds us accountable as we can’t hide behind a computer screen or a telephone if a customer may be less than happy with our product or service.
6. Adding Local Flair
Being residents of the Cape Town area, we know exactly what’s happening in our community. This means that we can easily add some special local flair to each and every arrangement (such as matching team colours with flower shades) upon request.
