Mum’s the word as Yodel’s flower deliveries up by 30% YoY

UK independent parcel carrier Yodel successfully delivered a record number of flowers on Mother’s Day, with deliveries up 30% on last year and more than 298,000 flower deliveries made on Sunday 14th March.

The record year follows significant investment in Yodel’s capability to handle everyday premium items, which has put the business in a strong position to meet the unprecedented demand for online gifting. Yodel has specialist sort facilities for flowers and other delicate items, such as wine and fresh food, and delivers on behalf of major floral retailers such as Euroflorist.

Alongside upgrading its infrastructure, Yodel has invested heavily in its people, and the average weekly flower volumes handled by the specialist teams have seen an exponential 300% rise over the past 12 months.

Mike Hancox, CEO of Yodel, commented: “With Mother’s Day looking very different for people across the country, we saw thousands of new customers embrace digital shopping and opt for online flower deliveries for the first time this year.

“The whole Yodel family played a big part in surprising mums with bouquets on their doorsteps on the special day. We’re grateful to our clients for their collaborative support in planning for this bumper year to ensure it ran smoothly.”
