History of Galbraith Florist

 

     Back in the 1960's the Flower Shop was know as "Gordon's Flowers". In the 70's the name was changed to "Galbraith Florist"

     Between the 70's and 1999 it was owned by two other people and moved several times.  In May 1999 I (Wendy Maber) purchased the Shop and by the end of the year moved to East Saint John and started off slow in the basement of our home.  I felt that people had an impression that flowers were to expensive, so I started the motto "Where you always get more flowers for your dollars".  We set up a website and the store grew.  Within three years we moved to the main road, 'Loch Lomond Road'.  Adding in Giftware, pictures, silks and dried arrangements.  I then created the total wedding website called "saintjohnbridal.ca" and gave other small businesses a chance to have their products on-line.  In 2006 we bought a piece of land and built our own building having a Wedding Room and Funeral Room seperate so people could have a private place to go and look at pictures. In June 2007 we opened the first Drive Thru Window east of Toronto.

 

     The shop is still learning and growing so that customers get the best price for their flowers.

Thanks
