Midlands Business Owners Concerned About Second Lockdown - Midlands103

August 7th, 2020 3:38pm One florist lost ten weddings when they were forced to close for two months.  Locking down Kildare, Laois and Offaly will have a devastating impact on businesses that are trying to get back on their feet. That's the message from Kildare Chamber of Commerce, which is calling on the government not to lock down the three counties. Hotels and bed and breakfasts have already started to get cancellations due to threat of a localised lockdown. Chamber chief executive Allen Shine wants the focus to be on community testing instead: Violet's Florist in Kildare Town lost commercial contracts and ten weddings when they were forced to close for two months. Owner Elisha Devine says if a strict lockdown is announced today, €3,000 euro worth of fresh flowers will go in the bin: ... https://www.midlands103.com/news/midlands-news/midlands-business-owners-concerned-about-second-lockdown/

‘The power of flowers’: Alabama’s florists cope with pandemic, recovery - AL.com

Volume dropped to almost nothing except what I could do,” Morris said.Morris’ experience was much like other industries, but it illustrates the particular challenges felt by florists around Alabama. The life events where people expect flowers - hospitalizations, funerals - were suddenly in the news, but the demand for them was all but extinguished.Cameron Pappas at Norton’s Florist in Birmingham said the lockdown, and the reopening that followed, has reminded him of the “power of flowers.”“We’ve had a lot of reminders of how important flowers are to everyone,” he said. “They keep people sane.”The pandemic hit America right in a peak season for florists - the rush before Easter, proms and spring events. Pappas said business began to slowdown by about 40 percent one week before his shop closed for two weeks on March 23. The store laid off all of its employees for that period.Cameron Pappas delivered flowers to Birmingham-area restaurants during the coronavirus shutdown.Thousands of floral businesses around America were left with perishable goods that they couldn’t sell. Just three days before Norton’s closed, it had received a shipment of about $5,000 in flowers. Rather than throw them out, Pappas said, they made bouquets to give away at restaurants and nursing homes that would accept them. In some cases, he hand delivered them.“We wanted the flowers to still do their job, to bring joy to bad situations,” he said. “We wanted them to say that we’re not going to let this virus take away the heart of our city.”Morris, 86, said he was reduced to little better than a one-man operation for about five weeks, with his nephew keeping the books. https://www.al.com/business/2020/06/the-power-of-flowers-alabamas-florists-cope-with-pandemic-recovery.html
