What Riyadh Buyers Order Most
Riyadh buys bigger and longer. Event production companies dressing galas, launches and Riyadh Season activations take 60–80cm premium roses in volume blocks; five-star hotels run standing weekly orders where head-size consistency matters more than price; and the corporate gifting sector keeps boutique florists restocking reds, whites and pastels all week. It is a market that punishes irregular grading — one uneven box in a hotel order costs the supplier the account — which is why every Riyadh shipment leaves Nairobi checked stem by stem.
Your 72 Hours, Hour by Hour
- Hour 0 — Order confirmed, official quotation issued; picking lists reach our partner farms in the Kenyan highlands the same morning.
- Hours 0–24 — Stems are cut, graded and pre-cooled at the farms, then collected in refrigerated transport to our consolidation point at JKIA, Nairobi.
- Hours 24–48 — Stem-by-stem inspection — soft, bruised or under-sized heads are rejected — then packing and the full document set: KEPHIS phytosanitary certificate, invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, air waybill.
- Hours 48–72 — Night freight from Nairobi to King Khalid International, Riyadh. Your MEWA permit meets our documents at quarantine; complete files clear the Green Track in about 2 hours and the boxes reach your cold room.

- We ship with the KEPHIS phytosanitary certificate, invoice, packing list, certificate of origin and air waybill — and can recommend experienced clearing agents.
Seasonal Demand in Riyadh
Riyadh runs the busiest event calendar in the Gulf. Valentine's Day empties every red-rose cooler in the city — book February volumes by early January. Saudi National Day in September turns the capital green and white and lifts corporate arrangements for weeks. Ramadan evenings and both Eids drive gifting, while the entertainment season keeps event florists ordering heavily through the cooler months — precisely when Kenyan highland production is at its October-to-May best. For hotels and event houses, we recommend fixing a standing weekly order and topping up per event.
