The Billion Dollar Flower Market (2015)
Director: Neil Grant
Genre: Documentary

Storyline:
The Flower industry is a £100 billion global business and Britain is the world’s fourth largest buyer of cut flowers. Nearly all of the flowers we buy are from abroad and it’s the Dutch, the world’s most advanced flower producer who control the market. But there’s a chink in the Dutch armour and the Brits are fighting back.
We follow Bexhill on Sea florist Geoff whose learnt Dutch and buys directly at the flower auctions in Holland, passing on savings to his loyal customers back home. We meet a new generation of British florists including 21 year old Jay, whose new business is booming because of a dedication to using quirky home grown British buds for her luscious event displays. Florists like Jay are even helping keep the world famous flower market Covent Garden in cheeky rude health.
And it’s not only them.
Our high street supermarket giants have realised growing business opportunities, spotting how to encourage shoppers to fill their trollies with home grown Sweet Williams sourced from local super grower Mark. And we reveal just how florist Rob did it to create his huge flower display outside London’s National Portrait Gallery.
Our own humble British flowers and enterprising British florists are on a roll, the Dutch aren’t having it all their own way.
