Survey Says: Staff Count Holds Steady

The average number of personnel per retail florist shop has remained fairly constant over the past seven years, despite consolidation in number of establishments. In 2006, the most recent data available, the average number of employees was 4.86, virtually unchanged from a year ago (4.82) and not far off from a high of 5.24 in 2001.
