History

EuroFlorist is a Swedish flower delivery chain founded by Peter Jungbeck in 1982 as Svensk Blomsterförmedling in Malmö, Sweden. Renamed to EuroFlorist in 1990, EuroFlorist began offering flowers online in 1995. In 2010 EuroFlorist acquired the UK based flower delivery service eFlorist/Teleflorist.

The Board has appointed Laszlo Varga (34 years) as the new CEO, starting in September 2015. Laszlo Varga recently served as COO of Euroflorist with responsibility for the company's e-commerce, which represents 60% of the business. Laszlo has worked at the company since 2009.

In November 2015 Euroflorist bought out its British competitor iFlorist.
