How to Start a Small Dried Flower Business: A Step-by-Step Guide

Are you passionate about nature and entrepreneurship? Starting a dried flower business lets you turn beauty into profit. With rising demand for sustainable decor, dried and preserved flowers are booming in weddings, events, and home styling. As a leading dried flower wholesale supplier, we’ll guide you through launching your venture—even on a small budget.

Step 1: Research Your Market & Niche

Identify your target audience:

• Event planners needing bulk dried florals for weddings.

• Home décor boutiques seeking unique dried arrangements.

• DIY enthusiasts buying loose dried flowers for crafts.
  Focus on a niche like dried bouquets, wreaths, or subscription boxes to stand out.

Step 2: Source Quality Flowers Reliably

Partner with a trusted dried flower supplier for consistency.

• Why wholesale? Buying dried flowers wholesale cuts costs by 30–50% versus retail.

• Look for suppliers offering:

  • Diverse varieties (e.g., lavender, pampas grass, statice).

  • Eco-friendly preservation methods.

  • Bulk discounts (e.g., 100+ stems).

Step 3: Create Your Product Line

Start simple:

• Beginner kits: Small bouquets or single-variant bundles (e.g., dried roses).

• Profit leaders: Custom wedding centerpieces or preserved flower frames.

• Pricing: Mark up wholesale costs by 2.5–3× (e.g., 0.50/stemwholesale→0.50/stemwholesale→1.50 retail).

Step 4: Set Up Sales Channels

• Online store: Use Shopify or Etsy; optimize for keywords like "dried flower supplier near me."

• Local markets: Pop-up shops at craft fairs or florist collaborations.

• Social media: Instagram/Pinterest showcase aesthetics using hashtags like #driedflowerbusiness.

Step 5: Master Logistics & Profitability

• Storage: Keep flowers in dark, dry containers to prevent fading.

• Packaging: Use recyclable boxes with silica gel to absorb moisture.

• Scale smart: Start small, then expand inventory via wholesale partnerships to maintain margins.
