Jet Fresh Flower Growers has announced the acquisition of 35 hectares of farmland in Ecuador as part of its 10-year expansion plan. Over the next decade, Jet Fresh Flower Growers plans to grow gradually with small, annual expansions.
"We're thrilled to expand our growing operations with this new land acquisition," said Mike Black, President of Jet Fresh Flowers. "With the rising global demand for our roses, it's crucial to ensure we have a consistent and reliable supply of high-quality flowers for our customers. This acquisition allows us to meet that demand while maintaining our commitment to quality, sustainability, and the boutique feel we're known for."
The new 35-hectare farm will focus on cultivating key varieties required by clients, including the Hippy Psychedelic and VIP Choco Wax roses. Its proximity to Jet Fresh Flower Growers' existing operations—just across the Río Alaquéz—ensures the company can continue utilizing the same fertile soil and water sources that have contributed to the exceptional quality of its roses over the years. The farm is also conveniently located for the company's team, ensuring smooth integration into operations. The new farm will be fully integrated under the same name and management as the existing Jet Fresh Flower Growers.
"This land is truly a gem," said Juanita Coloma, COO of Latin America & Jet Fresh Flower Growers. "It was previously a dairy farm and has never been treated with chemicals or fertilizers. It boasts some of the most fertile soil in the region. We're excited to start cultivating roses in such pristine conditions, which will allow us to further elevate the quality of our roses while supporting sustainable farming practices."
