Lake Country, BC – Looking for a Florist to share our studio space We are Sweet Elegance Floral Design, a luxury wedding florist located in the heart of the Okanagan, 20 minutes from Kelowna. As the fastest growing community in all of BC, there is also a growing demand in Lake Country for quality, designer style floral arrangements all year long.
As the focus of Sweet Elegance Floral Design is still solely committed to our seasonal wedding business, I want to share our beautiful studio space with a creative and outgoing florist who would like to run their own flower shop business and provide our community with those beautiful floral arrangements, and also partner with us on future projects. What does space sharing mean? Space sharing is a similar concept to a hair stylist renting a chair at a hair salon and that stylist having their own clients. We are looking to do the same, to rent our space to a florist in our brand new 900 square foot studio. What are the benefits of space sharing?
• No timely approval processes and costly start-up fees for your own start-up renovation / building program
• No huge time commitment in finding the necessary suppliers and business connections, and marketing involved in a business start-up. (again, we spent all those many hours already, been there, done and doing that!)
• No business license fees, and no expensive lease payments, which cost anywhere from $20 - $30 per square foot for new retail space here in Lake Country
• You will be sharing space with a recognized and award-winning luxury floral business known for their design quality and service
• You will be setting your own daily schedule to design and create your own floral arrangements to sell. There is a growing demand in Lake Country for designer bouquets and arrangements.
• Partner with us to create new ideas for larger projects and events • Receive valuable experience creating those Instagram worthy pictures of large floral backdrops, moongates and arches, and hanging installations during wedding season
• Mentorship from us, including valuable insights in running a floral business and better understanding of the financial side of business, to continued education and trends in the floral industry
• You are in control of your earning potential, not restricted to an hourly wage • Potential for business partnership with us down the road What are the requirements?
• Floral Certification Certificate and minimum 1 year experience
• Liability insurance Rental details:
• $600 per month--wait, what??! That's only $7 per square foot, A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!
• Small percentage of sales revenue held back to help cover shop costs • Access to the studio 5 days per week
• This is literally a TURNKEY opportunity waiting to happen... once-in-a-lifetime!! Website: sweetelegance.ca Email: connie@sweetelegance.ca
