Uber is the one platform that helps customers to go anywhere and get anything. With our eyes set on powering on-demand commerce, Uber Eats provides instant access to local merchants that extends beyond prepared food delivery, across the globe. With groceries, convenience, alcohol and other must-haves like wellness products, pet essentials, and now flowers, Uber is focused on helping consumers get more — more convenience, more variety, and more connections to commerce they love.
Founded in 1910, FTD has been a leader in the floral industry for over a century. At its inception, FTD worked with 13 florists to deliver flowers via the telegraph — a revolutionary idea at the time. Since then, FTD has established its ProFlowers arm of the business and has grown into a nationwide network of local florists to create more and better opportunities to bring beauty to local communities. ProFlowers partnership with Uber Eats is an opportunity for the brand to reach even more consumers who want to celebrate life’s most giftable moments, and further support their extended florist network with additional delivery options.
