We have been the current owners of The Flower Box for 31 years.
What is your primary product or service?
We are a full service florist. We sell fresh flowers for all occasions, and we also have a variety of artificial flowers. We also carry a wide range of plants, cement pieces and some gift items. We are here to serve our customers, and make deliveries in the tri-county area.
How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
Steve Ennis, the owner, has worked in the florist business since college. He went to Bradley University and majored in business.
How do you differentiate yourself from other businesses in your category and area?
I am a time-proven business. The Flower Box has been around the Peoria area for many years. We have changed with technology and keep up to date on the current florist industry. We offer a variety of services.
How many locations do you have and do you have plans to expand?
We are located in the center of a bustling village area of Peoria Heights. There are many new businesses opening in our area. We do not plan to move at the present time.
