Success Stories: 50Gram – What kind of business do you run?
We are running an E-commerce Florist Shop in Malaysia. One of our proudest creation is to be the first in the industry to introduce Malaysia’s First Video Bouquet to bring an interactive experience to our customers.
How it works is our bouquets come together with a video, retrievable by scanning the QR code generated by us. Swiftly, we’ve reached 100 thousand devotees and we are still growing rapidly.
This motivates us to continue to evolve and be innovative to stay fast growing. Throughout the years, we have actively collaborated with over 60 brands to bring great values to our customers.
As of now, 50gram holds the highest number of collaboration nationwide within the florist industry.
Where are You Headed as a Business?
We are heading towards overseas expansion, aiming to bring this great idea to more countries. In 2019, we will be heading towards Indonesia and Singapore to begin our expansion plan.
In the meantime, we will be working our best to evolve our business model beyond the levels of what the national florist industries have been adapting!
