Forget Christmas, one of the biggest holidays of the year is upon us... Valentine's Day! There's a lot that goes on behind-the-scenes at Mayesh to stock our customers' shelves with roses... so we thought it would be fun to share the process leading up to the big day.
Juan Carlos is part of our Purchasing Team, and every year, from about January 27th through February 6th, he visits the farms in Ecuador to walk the fields and greenhouses for quality control and to make sure our orders meet our expectations.
During his visits, he's checking on a few things...
QUALITY: that our roses are coming in free of issues, such as botrytis and other diseases
TIMING: that the farms are on time with the orders and deliveries, and then that the Cargo agency at the airport is on schedule
Valentine's Day is most definitely one of the busiest times of the year for us, but it is so important to us to provide quality products to our customers for such a big day. We wish you all a successful holiday... see you on the other side!
