About Stems of London-
Investment required £11,995 + VAT
Stems of London originally started as a single
flower stall in 2002, which immediately enjoyed
success due to its approach to the consumer and business
market sectors.
The Stems concept has since
developed into a brand of flower shop with an eco-friendly
appeal that services the consumer, business and
corporate market sectors. The company has been
responsible for high profile supplies including
dressing weddings and numerous corporate events.
The Opportunity
The opportunity is restricted to a limited
number of Licencees operating in selected territories throughout
the UK. The Stems of London Franchise opportunity is
strictly a hands on approach, this business opportunity
does not suit the passive investor.
From our experience, it is proven that Licencees who are totally
hands on, are able to achieve greater growth and profitability by
motivating their staff and building relationships with customers on
a one to one basis. This approach by the Licencee will also
ensure a greater understanding of their business, therefore
enabling it to grow in a positive direction.
You would be managing your
own ‘flower shop’ in your own selected
premises location and operating under Stems’ structured
national corporate umbrella which provides you with full back
office support including brand and marketing activities, sales and
administration services, corporate e-commerce support and on-going
business support.
The Market
The floristry market is one of the
most stable market sectors, growing on a steady basis year on
year.
The UK fresh flower market was worth £2.2 billion at retail level in 2007, which represents an average consumer spend of £36 per person per year.
Around 60% of the £2.2
billion spent represents people buying flowers and plants for
themselves, for their own homes. Even five years ago, most people
in the UK only bought flowers for special occasions like weddings
and anniversaries and may have bought a pot plant when visiting
someone. Now, we all appreciate the beauty of having fresh flowers
and plants around our homes and workplaces and in public
places.

London provide comprehensive training and
support.
