About Bloom & Wild Stock
Bloom & Wild, a letterbox flower delivery company, take an online approach to the traditional business of ordering and delivering flowers. It has infused the traditional flower-giving experience with predictive analytics and technology to deliver a fresher, less-traveled bouquet to the people they care most about. Founded in 2013 by Aron Gelbard and Ben Stanway, Bloom & Wild aims to become the pan-European market leader in flower and gift delivery. The company continued its expansion into more European markets and added bricks and mortar retail for the UK. By entering into a retail partnership with Sainsbury’s, Bloom & Wild sees an exclusive range of premium bouquets available in selected superstores nationwide.
