A COMPANY that supplies flowers and balloons is flying high and has just recruited a dedicated manager for the floral side of the business.

Tony Lowe Floristry and Balloon Wholesalers has appointed qualified florist Gaynor Jagger, aged 37, who has handled arrangements for clients ranging from large corporations to unique floral wedding designs.

"Tony Lowe is very strong in sourcing beautiful and innovative products from around the world," she said.

"I feel really fortunate as my position means I can try out all the new products before they even hit the UK market.

Excellent

"I think florists are drawn here because of the excellent quality and variety of our stock."

The family firm, based in Bromsgrove, was established 15 years ago.

Tony Lowe, who is a Certified Balloon Artist, said Ms Jagger's appointment was part of his business plan to expand the floristry division.

"The balloon and floristry industries are very individual professions with their own specific requirements. I believe it is important that our customers have access to qualified, experienced staff."
