The floricultural industry is a sector that has witnessed various developments and trends in different parts of the world. The farmers have gone on to garner huge profits in the process. The floricultural industry of Canada is no different either as the times of recession and high inflation had challenged the prospects of the flower industry in the country to a great extent. But today, thanks to the competitive nature of the farmers in the country, the sector is advancing forward. Special mention has to be given to trade shows like Canada Blooms that have proved to be very informative and bringing new innovations to the market. Canada Blooms 2014 is in the offing promising to bring more changes. In the export industry, Canada has much to cheer about as it reached a record figure of $165.3 million in the year 2002.

The floricultural industry of Canada is mainly centered around the Ontario belt that accounts for almost 75% of the total flower production of the country. Although the region had witnessed certain downslides between 2001 and 2006 due to extreme competition from the other flower growing regions, it has come back very strongly in the last couple of years. The region is mainly dedicated to growing cut flowers such as roses, chrysanthemum and alstroemeria. Many of the flower varieties were prominently displayed at exhibitions such as Canada Blooms. But the Ontario market still needs to overcome a lot of problems as it struggles to keep up the quality of flowers that are exported from South American countries. Some other potted flowering varieties grown in the region includes kalanchoe, cyclamen, Easter lilies, orchids and poinsettia. Its just like the previous editions is expected to witness great crowds.

Having said all this, it needs to be reiterated that the growth that the sector has witnessed alludes to the mass market chains such as grocery chains, discount departments and trade shows like Canada Blooms. The growers in the Niagara region of Ontario’s flower market were able to at one point of time penetrate into the mass market conditions of some states of the US such as Texas, Florida and Chicago. There was a wide diversity and the efficient utilization of technology made the success even more compelling. The biggest seasons of the industry without doubt are the Valentine’s Day, Mother’s day and Christmas. Canada Blooms 2014, a premier floral trade show contributes a lot to these seasons. Today the sector has to face many challenges such as the growing rate of the Canadian dollar, border issues and climate problems. However just as the industry has come back strongly after every recessionary period, it is expected that it would come back this time too.
