(NASDAQ: FLWS) and Uber Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: UBER) today announced a new collaboration leveraging Uber Direct, Uber\u2019s white-label delivery service, to help florists nationwide fulfill more orders. The announcement comes just ahead of Valentine\u2019s Day\u2014one of the busiest floral holidays of the year.<\/p>\n<p>\nThrough this collaboration, the 1-800-Flowers.com\u24c7 network of local florists, BloomNet\u00ae, can seamlessly tap into Uber Direct\u2019s extensive delivery technology and network to enable faster, more flexible deliveries, and meet demand during peak holiday surges and year-round.<\/p>\n<p>\nFor florists, managing delivery logistics for high-demand holidays like Valentine\u2019s Day and Mother\u2019s Day presents a significant challenge. While many flower shops have year-round drivers and dedicated delivery vans, limited vehicle capacity often forces them to turn down orders during holiday rushes. By integrating Uber Direct, florists who are part of the 1-800-Flowers.com BloomNet network and using the BloomNet proprietary Business Management System (BMS) gain instant access to additional drivers, ensuring timely delivery of bouquets even during peak holiday rushes.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cValentine\u2019s is one of the most important and demanding weeks for florists. This year, we anticipate delivering about 24 million stems for the holiday,\u201d said Jon Feldman, President of BloomNet. \u201cOur team is constantly out in the field personally visiting and building relationships with the thousands of shops in our floral network. We understand the logistical delivery challenges surrounding peak holidays such as Valentine\u2019s Day, so we\u2019ve teamed up with Uber Direct to provide our network with additional support. With Uber Direct, our florists can further their delivery capacity, ensuring more people can show their love and appreciation with fresh flowers\u2014without compromise.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nBy leveraging Uber\u2019s global logistics expertise, BloomNet florists using BMS can dynamically dispatch, track, and fulfill same-day floral deliveries, even as demand spikes. This is especially important for a holiday like Valentine\u2019s Day, when many shoppers purchase last-minute.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to join forces with 1-800-Flowers.com year-round, but especially to make this Valentine\u2019s Day gifting seamless,\u201d said Kiran Vinta, Head of Uber Direct for the US &amp; Canada at Uber. \u201cWith Uber Direct, florists can meet increased demand without logistical bottlenecks, ensuring that no bouquet\u2014or heartfelt sentiment\u2014goes undelivered.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nUber Direct allows merchants to maintain full control over the customer experience, offering white-label delivery without redirecting buyers to third-party apps. The service is already powering deliveries across multiple industries, from retail to grocery, and now, flowers.<\/p>\n<p>\nBy integrating Uber Direct, 1-800-Flowers.com reinforces its commitment to innovation, ensuring its BloomNet florists have the resources to meet seasonal demand surges while providing a top-tier customer experience.<\/p>\n<p>\nThis collaboration is now live across the U.S. in over 1,000 BloomNet network shops. 1-800-Flowers.com accepts floral orders for same-day delivery through 3 pm local time in most parts of the country, and up to 6 pm local time in select markets.<\/p>\n<p>\nFor more information on the 1-800-Flowers.com BloomNet network, visit <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bloomnet.net%2F&amp;esheet=54200619&amp;newsitemid=20250206026467&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=BloomNet.net&amp;index=1&amp;md5=e4d299ac9a040ce4cfc78cd65c88d240\">BloomNet.net<\/a>.
