Urbanstems Provides Same Day Bouquets at In-House Costs

Urbanstems is the future of the flower delivery industry. It foregoes the typical brick and motor business design for a strictly online service that lowers cost and ensures a more eco-friendly framework. Sourcing the flowers directly from sustainable farms in Colombia and Ecuador, Urbanstems speaks to the concerns and needs of modern individuals.

Urbanstems not only sources locally, but seasonally as well, which ensures fresh, long-living arrangements. Available on-demand, Urbanstems bouquets can be delivered within two hours (most within one) by bike messenger. The contemporary service was founded by Ajay Kori and Jeff Sheely. It currently only provides bouquets in Manhattan, New York, and Washingon, DC. But with its innovation business model, it will surely pop up elsewhere.
