Bloom Cycle
Sustainable Flower Delivery
The floral industry creates a surplus of excess waste, especially regarding events like weddings and unsold flowers at farmers’ markets. Consumers have become more aware of excess waste and favor sustainable companies. Bloom Cycle is creating an eco-friendlier flower-buying experience by minimizing waste and giving flowers that would normally get thrown away a second life. Bloom Cycle prioritizes eco-friendly practices at every step, including delivery and packaging. The flowers are arranged in compostable materials and delivered in electric vehicles, minimizing the company’s carbon footprint.
