UFG Flower Market

This morning Sam and I (Tia was sick) got up super early and went to the UFG flower auction in Grenada North - we organised in advance to watch the end of the auctions and then speak to the Wellington Branch Manager, Wilfred, afterwards.

 

When we arrived there were heaps of people bustling around doing their jobs. In the bidding room, there were many florists seated, bidding on the auctions. Wilfred told us that there are a number of people from all around New Zealand as well (today there was 12 people) who bid on the actions.

  

The auctions are done through a dutch auction (starting with the highest price).



Here are my notes:
