Exporting Flowers

If you are anywhere on earth hoping to export peonies, then you have to go up against the best.  Here a company in China is confident enough to explain the entire process...

1. Fresh Cut Listing

2. Price list

3. Packing, Shipping and documentation

One bit of advice from this page is risky...

2, By post office. The cost is about 19.4$/kg. You do not need pay tax in your country by this way and   do  not need any document paper. The plants can be ship out in one week.   

Careful... this may be practically true, but imprudent to state...  what if that one shipment is interdicted... the buyer would complain for having relied on the sellers advice.  In int'l trade, no good deed goes unpunished.

Their minimum is a 20' container.  Clearly that is for an importer with a nationwide distribution.  After adding mark-ups it is probably $7-10 a stem.  So that makes a small grower in USA competitive when selling peonies on a MOQ FOB $500 a box export offer.

So much opportunity, os little time.
