HUMBLE BEGINNINGS, DRAMATIC BREAKTHROUGHS

It is the stuff which success stories are made of.

A handful of women fired with youthful enthusiasm, inspired by visions of a brighter tomorrow. A small capital pooled together from personal resources. An undistinguised flower shop in Commonwealth Ave., Quezon City. A collection of merchandise consisting mainly of fresh cut flowers, artificial silk, dried and plastic flowers.

It was a combination of these factors that brought Flowers of May into being more than a decade ago. It was a business venture which, at that time, held no more than a promise of modest success.

But hard work, determination and honest toil have their just rewards. The little flower shop extends its services to floral arrangement, for office inagurations, birthdays, debuts, funerals, anniversaries, and finally, wedding ceremonies. Its aggressive marketing strategies provided the dramatic breakthroughs that allowed it to be popularly known in Quezon City, its fame thread like wildfire throughout Metro Manila and eventually the United States.

At the start of 1996, Flowers of May was reborn as a corporation on July 2001. It also had branched out a shop in Katipunan Avenue, Quezon City and Tagaytay City.

Definitely, this is one more manifestation of the dynamism that has characterized Flowers of May from its very inception.
