Chicago – In less than a month, the fresh flower trade show “World Floral Expo” will take place in Rosemont, Chicago. It is for the second time that this show will be held in Chicago. Four years ago in 2014, the Rosemont Convention center was also the location of this International cut flower trade event.
The majority of the exhibitors are national and international flower growers displaying their latest varieties, which are available for the US market. However also importers and distributors of fresh cut flowers and various suppliers of floral products will be exhibiting. CalFlowers is present with a joint pavilion for its members and because of this, securing the presence of Californian grown flowers and plants.
With the increased possibilities for African flowers entering the US market, Kenya is present with a large group of Kenyan flower growers this year. But also Ecuador is traditionally strongly represented by a vast large group of strong and big Ecuadorian flower growers that export high quality roses to the US market.
