Our story

Andean roots, Arabian market.

Andean Arabian Flowers Limited is an importer, exporter and wholesaler of fresh flowers and plants — built around one idea: bring the best of the Andes' growing regions to Dubai, fresh.

Where the name comes from.

The cool, high-altitude farms of the Colombian Andes grow some of the world's finest cut flowers. Dubai — a global hub with the purpose-built Dubai Flower Centre on its doorstep — is where they meet the Gulf market. Andean + Arabian is that route, in two words.

We source roughly nine in ten of our stems direct from Colombian growers, with the balance from Holland, and bring them through a Dubai cold-chain to wholesale buyers, hotels, restaurants and events.

The supply model

How a stem reaches your vase.

Step 01

Grown in the Andes

Cut to order on Colombian highland farms (≈90% of our supply), with Dutch sourcing for the remainder.

Step 02

Flown to Dubai

Stems travel cool and fast into Dubai, arriving while they're still at their freshest.

Step 03

Cold-chain handled

Received, graded and conditioned through the Dubai Flower Centre — Dubai's dedicated floral hub.

Step 04

Wholesale

Supplied by the box to florists, retailers and trade buyers across the UAE.

Step 05

Arranged

Designed into reception and lobby pieces for hotels, restaurants and events.

Direct, cold, fresh.

One unbroken chain from farm to your door — that's the whole point.

Heritage & press

A dedication to roses.

The business and its owner, Terrence Bramble, were profiled by The National in a feature on the Colombia-to-Dubai rose supply chain — a story of building a direct, reliable line between Andean growers and the Gulf's hospitality market.

From the archive. An earlier press feature (c.2012–2014) described shipments of around 2,000 kg and some 10,000 roses sourced across roughly 45 farms. These are historical, attributed figures — not current live volumes.

What we stand on

Reliable, fresh, direct.

Direct sourcing

Straight from Andean growers — fewer hands, fresher stems.

Cold-chain discipline

Kept cool from arrival to delivery, at the Dubai Flower Centre.

Trade-built

Set up for wholesale, hospitality and events — not a gift counter.

Living things, well kept

From cut roses to air-plants and terrace gardens — we care for what grows.
