The global cut flowers market size is expected to reach USD 51.83 billion by 2030 and it is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.8% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The cut flower market is witnessing significant shifts driven by evolving consumer preferences and market dynamics. A notable trend is the increasing use of cut flowers for various occasions such as weddings, celebrations, and cultural events, alongside a growing preference for locally grown and sustainable options, particularly in the Asia Pacific market. This demand for eco-friendly products has led to a surge in homegrown floriculture.
Owing to a stiff competition from international suppliers who offer lower prices and greater volume, U.S. flower farms are carving out a niche by focusing on speciality varieties not readily available from overseas distributors. These local growers are emphasizing high-quality stems, including delicate blooms that may not withstand long-distance shipping or have shorter vase lives, catering to discerning customers seeking unique offerings.
Among various flowers, roses are considered as timeless symbols of love and affection, remain immensely popular across various occasions, driving demand for cut flowers. Their diverse colors and versatility in arrangements further contribute to their appeal among consumers.
Small-scale cut flower farms, characterized by their entrepreneurial spirit, often adopt direct-to-consumer sales strategies through avenues such as farmers markets, CSA programs, and agritourism ventures. In addition, experienced local growers may collaborate with wholesale distributors, florists, or event services to supply specialty flower varieties, leveraging their expertise and market connections.
Research conducted by Columbia & Stock in 2021 and Curtis & Stock in 2023 underscores the significance of these market trends and the strategic approaches adopted by players in the cut flower industry to meet evolving consumer demands and capitalize on emerging opportunities.
