Farm Direct offers a unique selling proposition in the
cut-flower
business - roses sold Direct from the
Grower in Ecuador to the
Client in North America. The client
receives the advantage of a
fresher, more long - lasting product and
direct access to the grower,
at prices comparable to conventional
distributors’ roses.

Our commitment is to maintain and improve our standards
bringing not only top quality products
and new varieties but
excellent high customer service
standards.

proud to say that we have met all their
regulations and improved the
impact on the environment and personnel
at Farm Direct. In 2004 we
entered BASC (Business Anti Smuggling
Coalition), guaranteeing
the secure shipment of our products
throughout the world.

Farm Direct has been also granted the German based Green
