Teleflorist Changing14 Sep 2009Since its early beginnings in 1947, British Teleflower Service (Teleflorist) has evolved and developed into the UK’s largest network of florists interacting with each other around the UK & Ireland, and indeed, worldwide through its membership of Teleflor, established in 1971, which now incorporates a global network of over 70,000 florists worldwide. As its history demonstrates, Teleflorist is not a business content with standing still. Since its inception it has worked in partnership with its member florists, supporting their business objectives and providing one of the leading relay services in the industry. Teleflorist has always actively promoted professional floristry and the concept of handmade and personally delivered flowers. To this day Teleflorist can guarantee that all of the orders it generates are passed to its Members for execution – Teleflorist does not box or send flowers via courier services. Teleflorist is constantly looking at ways to support its Members more effectively and help them make their businesses more successful. During 2008 and 2009 Teleflorist began to look beyond its current offer and began work on a revolutionary new business model that would better suit the needs of modern florists. From 5th October 2009 Teleflorist will change its name to eFlorist and embark on an ambitious evolution from a membership relay organisation to a florist services business. Taking its name from its already hugely successful online ordering mechanism, eFlorist, the company is now focussed on developing this tool, increasing its functionality and establishing a vibrant online community of florists - all focused on being the best at what they do.
