Bloomex.ca Launches New Site Design

Bloomex.ca, Canada’s largest online florist, is proud to launch a new design for its website today.

The new design is a fresh new look for Bloomex, which continues to flourish as the country’s leading florist. The highlights of these refreshed pages are a modernized layout that is well-suited for modern screens and devices and an emphasis on image-driven layout, making the customer experience easier and more intuitive.

“We felt it was time to take refresh our online appearance in accordance with our valued customers’ expectations,” said Mark Camphaug, Director of Marketing & Sales for Bloomex. “Our old design served us very well for a number of years, but we feel that our new layout will make the buying experience even easier and provide a bit of a fresh look."

Launched in 2005, Bloomex reported record sales and revenues in 2013. The company is unlike other florists in that it deals directly with growers, eliminating the middlemen that serve to drive up prices for end consumers of the company's competitors.

After the implementation of the new layout on Bloomex.ca, the company expects to roll out a similar look in the coming weeks for Bloomex Australia at bloomex.com.au.

Administrative Professionals' Day is April 23!

Great savings from Bloomex.ca for Administrative Professionals' Day.

Well, Easter is in the books and Mother's Day is still a ways away. In between those two occasions marks a great opportunity to pay tribute to the people that keep business moving forward in Canada -- our administrative professionals and secretaries.

There are nearly 500,000 such professionals in Canada alone, and the day is recognized as an opportunity to acknowledge their contribution.

The day has its roots in National Secretaries Week, started in 1952. Over time, it's shifted and taken on a few different variations as the job position and responsibilities have shifted over time. The day is currently celebrated in numerous countries throughout the world. There's a good rundown of its history here.

Bloomex has a page dedicated to the occasion, with a selection of bouquets, planter baskets and combo packages starting at just $19.99. Check it out today!
