Carithers Flowers, a second generation, family-owned full
service florist that serves the entire Atlanta, Georgia and Atlanta Metro
areas, and
voted #1 Florist in Atlanta and the surrounding areas for 12 consecutive years,
is responding to recent news coverage about state florists in Georgia who are
trying to position themselves as local Atlanta flower purveyors by noting that
it is a real, local Atlanta-area florist.
This response by Carithers Flowers comes as a
result of a recent Chanel 2 broadcast in Atlanta and a WSBTV.com
story where it was discovered that flower websites, claiming to be local to
the Atlanta area, were, in fact, not even in the state of Georgia. The
investigation found that these websites, stating they were in Georgia, actually
shared toll-free numbers with Internet florist websites found in many other
states. Floral customers that trusted these sites ended up with late deliveries
and wrong orders, making for a bad floral arrangement order experience and
creating many mistrusting consumers.
Charles Carithers, Owner of Carithers
Flowers, responded by stating, “While we do offer national and regional
delivery, the vast majority of our order volume comes from local customers
living in Atlanta and surrounding metro Atlanta communities. We have multiple
brick-and-mortar locations in the Atlanta area. Our main floral design center
is located at 1708 Powers Ferry Road, Marietta, Georgia 30067. Our Wedding and
Event Flower and Decoration staging facility is located at 2030 Powers Ferry
Road, Suite 450, Atlanta, Georgia 30339. The Carithers Flowers name is proudly
displayed on our buildings and our website. Our firm is well known for giving
back to our local community. My team is focused on quality, creativity and
prides itself in producing dazzling floral designs while providing a
consistently high level of customer service. It is sad that some flower shop
owners feel the need to deceive customers. We have built our business on
integrity and transparency with our customers. They have rewarded us by voting
us the number one florist in Atlanta 12 consecutive years through the Consumers
Choice Awards.”
Carithers Flowers features same-day
delivery to Atlanta and all metro Atlanta area suburban communities. Carithers
also offers a same-day delivery for national and regional deliveries through
their proprietary 'best of the best' floral design network. You can connect with
