At Pimlico Florist, sustainability is woven into every aspect of our business. We are dedicated to providing stunning, fresh flowers while maintaining a deep respect for the environment. Our Pimlico customers and local businesses value eco-friendly flowers and green practices, seeking reassurance that their choices can positively impact the world. That’s why we’ve made significant commitments to reduce our carbon footprint, promote responsible floriculture, and champion ethical trade in every bouquet we deliver.
Supporting eco-friendly flowers in Pimlico starts at the source. We carefully select our blooms with the planet in mind, prioritising growers who use sustainable farming methods. Whenever possible, we choose seasonal British flowers from local growers in and around London. By selecting flowers grown closer to Pimlico, we significantly reduce transport emissions and support local farming communities. For more exotic or specialty varieties, our strict criteria ensure they either meet or exceed Fairtrade standards, guaranteeing fair wages and ethical treatment for workers while minimizing environmental impact during cultivation.
We recognise the importance of social responsibility alongside environmental care. Pimlico Florist offers a range of Fairtrade flowers, working with certified farms who share our passion for ethical practices and sustainability. Choosing Fairtrade flowers means ensuring that each stem is grown under fair labor conditions, empowering communities and supporting better livelihoods for those working in the floral supply chain.
Traditional flower packaging can create unnecessary waste, so we’ve reimagined every detail of our floral presentation. Our bouquets are wrapped in recycled and biodegradable materials, free from harmful plastics and toxins. We use simple, elegant solutions – from paper ties to compostable wraps – that protect both your flowers and the environment. Whenever boxes are needed for our deliveries, we choose recycled cardboard, and always avoid single-use plastics. Our packaging is as beautiful as it is sustainable, delivering joy with minimum environmental cost.
Flower delivery shouldn’t cost the earth. That’s why our Pimlico delivery service is designed with sustainability in mind. We operate a fleet of low-carbon vans, ensuring your flowers arrive in perfect condition while minimising emissions on London’s busy streets. Each route is optimised for fuel efficiency, enabling us to provide timely and eco-friendly flower delivery throughout Pimlico. When available, we also use pedal-powered or electric vehicles to further reduce our carbon impact. Your thoughtful gift can travel from our shop to your loved ones’ doorsteps with a much-reduced environmental footprint.
Our Pimlico customers and local businesses choose us not only for our stunning arrangements but because sustainability matters to them – just as it matters deeply to us. By sourcing locally, offering Fairtrade options, adopting green packaging, and delivering flowers using low-carbon methods, we enable everyone in Pimlico to make eco-conscious choices with confidence. We’re proud to be part of a community that cares for the environment and believes in building a greener future, one bouquet at a time.
Sustainability is not just a trend at Pimlico Florist – it’s the heart of our mission. We are always exploring new ways to improve, whether it’s finding even greener materials or working with more local growers. For our customers, every order is a statement of care for both people and planet. Thank you for helping us make Pimlico blossom more sustainably.
