iBuyFlowers was founded by Wilfred de Wit, son of a Dutch lily grower. When he was young, he moved to Ecuador to start his own career in flowers. It was there that he realized that the flower industry needed a change.
'Flowers shouldn't be stored in coolers- they should be shipped directly'
Wilfred learned that flowers often travel long distances, going from grower to importer, to wholesaler and then to florists and event planners. Because of these delays, flowers are stored in coolers for days before they reach their final destination.
Moreover, Wilfred realized flower professionals spend a lot of their time driving to their wholesalers to pick up flowers. "What if we could set up a new system that makes the lives of flower professionals easier?" Wilfred asked himself. He took matters in his own hands, hired a team and founded the first B2B online fresh flowers marketplace.
