What makes GFG so unique?
It’s the ONLY kite mark of quality in the florist industry that is accredited and assessed by your fellow florists ... you can’t just buy your way in; the success of GFG is about being the best, not the biggest!
It's open to everyone! GFG membership is open to EVERY florist - they have shop, studio, and event florists as members - but it is about being the best, most proactive and forward thinking, with a willingness to go extra mile and then some, and, perhaps most importantly, a desire to help each other survive and thrive in the toughest times.
A proven marketing and support system second to none and even more important in 2025!
The fact membership comes with a whole host of other benefits is just another reason to join!
Yes, there is a nominal fee - a measly 40p a day - but only when you have either been nominated or gone through the simple accreditation process will you see an invoice and chances are you’ll pay for your membership in the first three months!
Nearly 200 florists are already part of the most exciting, caring and sharing movement in the industry ... why not make 2025 the year YOU join them.

Applying is easy
Using our simple online form, choose the category that fits best - shop, studio or event - fill in the form and upload your pics.
As long as you've got everything together (it's an idea to read the uploading process through before you start) it should only take around 15/20 minutes or so but please give it as much love as you give your design work so the panel can see you in all your glory!!!
It will take around 14 days to process as applications are assessed by a panel of current GFG members but as soon as it's done, and you've passed then we'll get your certificate, badges, stickers and social media assets out and add you to our group pages which means you could be a GFG'er in time for Valentine's!
