Hi and welcome! What's your position with the company?
 
welcome to the community.

I have just one question for now. I doubt you have been in the industry for 96 years, I know you are referring to your business, could you please tell us how long YOU have been in the floral industry. Thanks.
 
It only feels like I've been in the business 96 years

I have been in the floral business for 35 years in a family business that is 96 years old. In that 35 years I have worked a floral supply warehouse, wholesale sales floor (16 years), corporate buyer, sales manager, chief information officer. My wife owned a retail flower shop. I've swept floors, unloaded trucks, sold a million miles of ribbon, ran retail deliveries, stood out front of my wifes shop in a bunny suit, written computer programs, managed commercial real estate. I sit on the Board of Directors of The Wholesale Florists & Floral Suppliers of America. I am a member of the John Carroll University Entrepeneurs Association. In addition to that, I am a licensed commercial pilot (33 years) and a professional wedding photographer. I am a member of the Professional Photographers of America, Professional Photographers of Ohio, Wedding and Portrait Photographers International, National Association of Photoshop Professionals. I photograph weddings every Saturday from the Great Lakes region to the tip of Florida.
