OLD SAYBROOK, Conn. — FromYouFlowers.com, one of the nation's leading retailers of flowers and gifts, announced that, effective October 31, 2012, it has terminated its relationship with Proflowers.
Michael Chapin, CEO of FromYouFlowers.com stated, "We wish all the best to ProFlowers, however, our decision to separate from ProFlowers at this time is consistent with our commitment to our florists and customers, worldwide, to deliver exceptional floral, plant and gift delivery services on a cost efficient basis. We intend to work more closely with florists in the BloomNet network. In addition, this will also afford us the opportunity to continue our growth initiatives and innovate our platform so as to enable us to provide an even broader product offering to our customers on a same day basis."Mr. Chapin also noted that the quantity of orders placed with the company after October 31 will remain substantially unchanged and will continue to be transmitted to professional retail premier florists through the BloomNet network.
