1-800-Flowers.com is expanding its product selection by directly connecting customers to third-party sellers of handmade gift items.
Just in time for Valentine’s Day, the specialty gift retailer is introducing Gifts & More, an online marketplace featuring curated items from local sellers across more than 15 new product categories, including home décor, spa gift baskets party supplies, and DIY activities. The marketplace features more than 200 brands which are new to 1-800-Flowers.com, including Luca + Dani, Naturally Gifted, and more.
“This addition will help us continue to bring new trends to market as we support local independent sellers, providing them with an innovative platform to sell their goods on a national scale,” said 1-800-Flowers.com president Abhay Patel. “Giving is truly the gift, and we’ll continue to look for opportunities to broaden our product offerings as we seek to solve more of our customers’ gifting needs.”
