Since 1992, AFE has conducted survey research in the form of a diary study to understand in greater detail the floral purchases of the public.
Formerly called the Consumer Tracking Study and last conducted in 2005, AFE (American Floral Endowment) partnered with SAF (Society of American Florists) to revive the year-long study that provides the latest data from authentic floral purchasers.
Conducted by IPSOS and funded by the FMRF (Floral Marketing Research Fund), this study surveyed 43,145 participants to provide the industry with valuable consumer buying information to help plan for inventories, marketing, pricing and sales optimization.
