Bloom & Wild

The gift of fresh flowers, delivered straight through the letterbox. On iOS, Android and web.

Bloom & Wild are a mobile and online florist with a fresh approach to sending flowers. Their aim is to make sending design-led flowers as simple as sending a text message, and receiving them as easy as receiving a letter. Co-founders Aron Gelbard and Ben Stanway set out to use technology to create the UK's most loved flower brand. They developed their award-winning letterbox packaging to enable a bouquet of fresh flowers to be delivered through a standard UK letterbox. This means there is no need for the recipient to wait in for the delivery, and as the flowers are shipped soon after they are cut, they are longer lasting. In two years Bloom & Wild has not only claimed the title of the UK's top rated flower company, but they've done it while scaling at 1000% YoY. The company's purpose is to make sending and receiving flowers the joy that it should be, and do this by innovating at every stage of the customer journey. Their industry leading iOS/Android apps and website make it possible to order from a carefully designed and curated flower gift range in well under a minute. Delivery through the letterbox across the UK means receiving flowers is as easy as receiving a letter, even when the recipient is not at home. Their customers highly rate the care and detail in the innovative letterbox packaging that assures each and every flower remains protected and fresh on its journey. This attention to detail, coupled with rigorous product testing allows Bloom & Wild to deliver bouquets that last for weeks. Bloom & Wild is VC-backed, growing at around 35% per month, and has widespread global and national press coverage in The Financial Times, Bloomberg and Inc. The team was recently selected to join Tech City UK's Upscale Club, Bloomberg's 2016 Innovators cohort and was in the top 10 of the App Store's top apps of 2015.
