How the Flower Export Process Works – From Farm to Destination

For many international buyers, understanding how the flower export process works is essential when choosing a reliable supplier.

At Lisa’s Flowers Export, we manage the full process from sourcing to delivery, ensuring that flowers arrive fresh, well-prepared, and ready for your market.

🌱 Sourcing from flower farms in Kenya & Ethiopia

We work directly with carefully selected farms in Kenya and Ethiopia, known for producing:

Premium roses

Summer flowers
Export-quality varieties

Flowers are grown in high-altitude conditions, which contribute to:

vibrant colours
longer vase life

✂️ Harvesting and initial handling

Once the flowers reach the right stage:

Stems are cut at optimal maturity
Flowers are immediately placed in hydration solutions
Initial sorting begins at the farm level

This ensures freshness is preserved from the very first step.

📏 Grading and quality control

After harvesting, flowers are:

Graded by stem length (e.g. 40–80 cm for roses)

Checked for export standards

Only flowers that meet strict quality requirements are prepared for shipment.
