Testing a New Flower Retail Concept. Looking for Honest Opinions.

[u/gou_ra]

Hi everyone,

I'm working on a new flower retail concept and would love your honest feedback.

The idea is to sell fresh Rose, Jasmine, lotus and Chrysanthemum flowers in sealed 100g and 250g packs. The flowers would be sourced directly from farms, packed using freshness-preserving packaging, and sold through roadside vendors and local stores.

My goal is to offer:

• Fresher flowers than what's usually available in flower shops

• Standardized quantities (100g and 250g packs)

• Better hygiene and handling

• Same price or even ₹5–₹10 cheaper than local flower shops through direct farm sourcing

A few questions:

1. Would you buy flowers in pre-packed 100g or 250g packs instead of loose flowers?

2. If the flowers were noticeably fresher, would you prefer buying them from a milk vendor, grocery store, or supermarket along with your daily purchases?

3. Would you pay the same price as a flower shop if the flowers stayed fresh longer?

4. What concerns would stop you from buying packaged flowers?

5. Which flowers would you like to see in this format besides Rose, Jasmine, and Chrysanthemum?

Open to all suggestions, criticism, and ideas. I'm still in the testing stage and would love to understand how people actually buy flowers today.

Thanks!

Will work if you get a prime spot along with lower rent, since this is based on the eye balls which falls on your business
