Product Spotlight: The Changing Floriculture Industry: A Statistical Overview, Fourth Edition
Its hard to run a business and stay on top of what's going on in the floral industry -- but SAF makes it easy with The Changing Floriculture Industry: A Statistical Overview (fourth edition). This updated and expanded version tracks industry sales, production levels and trends for each segment of the industry. It contains more than 60 information-packed pages filled with charts, maps and tables — twice the data of the previous edition — plus
a new chapter on the floral consumer.
A research firm would charge you thousands
of dollars for a statistical overview of the floral industry with this level of detail, but SAF members pay only $49.95. For $19.95, members can also purchase a CD-ROM containing "PowerPoint-ready" images of all the report's charts and graphs. Call SAF Member Services at (800) 336-4743 if you have questions or if you would like to purchase this powerful new tool. Non-members, please call for pricing.
