A Memorable Mother's Day at Fruits To Remember


Mother’s Day was very busy for the entire staff at Fruits To Remember.. The day began at 5am, beginning with picking up fresh fruit from the market downtown. We had many deliveries throughout the greater Los Angeles area and there were many unique delivery requests. Our commitment to customer service satisfaction was put to the test when the first fruit bouquet delivery of the day was scheduled for 5:30 in the morning! It’s a safe bet the early-rising recipient was the first person in Los Angeles to receive a luxury fruit arrangement on Mother's Day.

The F2R delivery vehicle visited many new destinations within Los Angeles on Mother’s Day, and many drivers and pedestrians smiled and pointed at the delicious-looking fruit graphics on our delivery vehicle as we passed them by on the freeway or on the streets. While in traffic in Beverly Hills, a gentlemen passenger in a stately Rolls Royce waved at me as the traffic slowed and he slowly rolled down his window. I thought he was going to ask if I had any Grey Poupon, but instead he politely asked if I had any fruit samples, right there in traffic! I did not have any samples at the time and I smiled and laughed and handed him a brochure and we moved forward in traffic.

Our new Delightful Surprise arrangement was very popular on Mother’s Day, as well as the English Tea. However, I must say that our deluxe and elegant, luxury chocolate-covered strawberry variety arrangement, Modern Berries was the smash hit of the day!

It was an exciting and busy day, and the staff at Fruits To Remember was pleased to assist in our special customer’s unique gift ideas for their loved ones.
