Hi, we’re Bloom & Wild. We don’t just send flowers. We help our customers to care wildly. Caring wildly is celebrating the little things we all do for each other every day. Not just the big occasions. It’s being there for the highs and stepping up for the lows.

We care wildly about people and our planet. That’s why we’re proud to be a certified B Corp™ – committed to making long‑term positive change for our community and the world around us.

Founded in 2013, our mission was to make sending and receiving flowers a joy. In 2021 we announced £75 million of Series D funding, acquired Bloomon in the Netherlands and Bergamotte in France, and together we delivered over 20 million orders – becoming the largest direct‑to‑consumer flower business in Europe.

Now we’re home to a family of three beautiful brands, driven by a vision to create the destination for making life a little more thoughtful and beautiful. We won’t stop at flowers and plants – we’re expanding our gifting offering to cakes, candles, cocktails and more, as we aim to build Europe’s #1 direct‑to‑consumer gifting destination.
