Shipping:
All flowers are distributed in wholesale production, (per box), yet for special occasions such as weddings and other special events, we can accommodate clients needs.

We offer delivery primarily to the San Francisco Bay Area. We also offer service to any city destination in the United States, via FedEx and other freight carriers, such as Jessup. Shipping prices vary depending quantity of order and season.

All shipments are delivered from Bogota, (Colombia) and Quito, (Ecuador) within 48 hours to San Francisco. Please note that all orders need to be placed one full week to 10 days before order due date, as for growers' availability. Also, please note during holidays, such as Christmas, Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, and other special holidays, flower availability and shipping logistics differ..so make sure to place an order in advance!

A Flower Shipment Timeline:

1 . From the farm growers in Ecuador, the flowers are packed according to the specific requirements
of each customer and placed in the cooler where they will spend the night.
2 . The following morning, refrigerated trucks pick up the boxes that will be taken to the airport.
3 . At the airport the cargo is also received into a cooling facility and kept there until the plane is ready for departure.
4 . The flight duration to Miami International Airport is usually 3-4 hours.
5 . The boxes are unloaded, taken to be x-rayed and checked by Customs and Department of Agriculture.
6 . Once inspection has passed, Customs releases the Airway Bill and the flowers are ready for pick-up by a freight forwarder.
7 . After the flowers are cleared by the USDA and Customs, these are transported into another flight to San Francisco Airport.
8 . Once these arrive, one of our freight carriers will pick up and drop off boxes at Centra Cargo - a large warehouse for storing Sunshine's fresh cut flowers.
9 . Orders will be taken from our cooler directly to the transportation company in a refrigerated truck.
10 . Sunshine will then distribute according to individual clients.
(The cooler's temperature is at 34 F).

Quality Control:
Sunshine's mission is to offer fresh cut flowers at competitive production and distribution costs, excellent quality, enduring consistency from our growers, and personalized service to all clients.

We'll be happy to assist you with any questions regarding variety of flowers and specifications, shipping logistics, dates of delivery, and all other inquiries.

In case an order does not pass the USDA Customs inspection at the Miami and/or San Francisco International Airports, the flowers must be fumigated or dumped. It is recommended by most horticulturists and the USDA to dump failed inspection of flowers. If this occurs, you will not be charged for that shippment.

There are unexpected surprises while inspection...at anytime the best quality flower may arrive with insects or mites. Fresh cut flowers are perishable goods.

If this happens, Sunshine International will alert the customer as soon as the situation emerges.
As the client, you will not be charged for that shippment.
