Account Managers also will need to be able to socialize and network with clients and/or prospective clients at industry functions.

Founded in 1974, Continental Flowers is a pioneer in the Miami floral industry, relentlessly seeking to improve America's access to fresh cut flowers. This mission drives the company to constantly innovate in developing best-in-class growing techniques and rapid cold-chain distribution.
