A Day in the Life of a Wholesale Dried Flower Distributor

In the heart of Kunming, China—Asia’s floral capital—each day begins early for a wholesale dried flower distributor. Behind every bouquet in a boutique shop or pampas grass stalk in a hotel lobby is a carefully orchestrated process of selection, preparation, and global export. At EterniBlossom, we’re more than a factory—we’re your behind-the-scenes partner in the floral supply chain.

Here’s what a typical day looks like inside our dried flower distribution center.

🌅 7:00 AM – Harvest, Quality Check & Sorting

Our day starts in the fields—or in our contracted farms just outside Kunming. While most of our raw materials are harvested in the previous season and dried naturally, daily stock is manually checked for quality, color retention, and texture. Common materials include:

• Dried wheat, lavender, and billy buttons

• Preserved ruscus and eucalyptus

• Popular items like dried pampas grass, bunny tails, and sola flowers

By 9 AM, our team begins sorting by length, bloom quality, and color, ensuring that only the best goes into each export order.

📦 10:00 AM – Custom Packing & Labeling

Once sorted, our dried flower bundles move to the packing zone. Depending on the client’s destination—USA, UAE, Germany, Malaysia—each order is customized in terms of:

• Bundle size and flower variety mix

• Branded packaging or plain kraft wrapping

• Labeling (SKUs, barcodes, Arabic/English translations if needed)

• Moisture-safe packaging for air or sea freight

Thanks to our in-house team, we can pack up to 200–300 cartons per day, serving both small florists and large wholesalers.

🧾 1:00 PM – Coordinating International Orders & Inquiries

Afternoons are dedicated to communication. Our B2B clients often reach out for:

• Product availability

• MOQ requests (we accept low-MOQ starting at 1 carton)

• Sample photos or videos

• Documents like phytosanitary certificates or commercial invoices

Our export team prepares shipment schedules, confirms logistic timelines, and works with clients to ensure smooth import processes, especially when importing dried flowers from China to USA or the Middle East.

🚚 4:00 PM – Shipping & Logistics

We work closely with international freight forwarders based in Guangzhou and Shanghai to coordinate bulk dried flower exports. Depending on urgency, we ship via:

• Air freight (3–7 days to most regions)

• Sea freight (for FCL/LCL orders with long shelf life needs)

• Courier express (for sample orders or mixed small batches)

Each box is inspected before being sealed, and tracking numbers are sent to clients before day’s end. Our warehouse handles both preserved flowers and dried flowers wholesale, with clear separation to maintain product quality.

🌙 7:00 PM – Reviewing Trends and Preparing Tomorrow’s Orders

As the day winds down, our team reviews:

• Top-selling items (e.g., ivory pampas, dusty pink ruscus)

• Upcoming seasonal trends (Ramadan, wedding season, Christmas)

• Production schedules and drying room space availability

• Customization requests for new color palettes or bouquet kits

We update our dried flower wholesale catalog weekly to reflect real-time availability, ensuring our partners always stay ahead of the market.
