“This is truly a flower that will never wither — so beautiful!”
“‘Queen Margaret’ — the bouquet and its name are both wonderful!”
“Can we buy them on the spot?”
These were just some of the enthusiastic reactions at the “China-Yunnan – UAE-Dubai Specialty Product Promotion Fair” held on April 16. Li Shuangping, head of Yunnan Aoli Flower Co., Ltd., a leading Songming preserved flower manufacturer, excitedly shared with reporters:
“‘Yunhua’ (Flowers from Yunnan) truly made a stunning debut. On the very first day, three distributors expressed strong interest, with one planning a visit to Yunnan for further negotiations.”
A total of three top Yunnan preserved flowers companies participated in this event, with Aoli Flower Co., Ltd. among the standout names. Traveling more than 4,500 kilometers to Dubai, Songming’s preserved flowers showcased their unparalleled beauty and craftsmanship.
Excellence in Every Detail
At Aoli Flower Co., meticulous craftsmanship defines every product. As a trusted preserved flowers exporter, we ensure each preserved flower — from sorting and edging to packaging — is handled with precision. Through advanced processes like decolorization, dehydration, recoloring, and reshaping, fresh flowers are transformed into lasting works of art, maintaining their natural beauty and vivid colors for up to three years or more.
Li Shuangping, who has been devoted to the preserved flower industry for decades, established Aoli in 2015 in Muzuozuo Community, Songyang Street, Songming County. Thanks to Songming’s ideal climate and soil, the company maintains a 30-mu plantation of premium flower varieties, partnering with local farmers to ensure a stable, high-quality raw material supply.
Today, Aoli Flower Co. stands as a comprehensive preserved roses supplier integrating planting, processing, and sales, specializing in roses, hydrangeas, carnations, and more.
Advanced Technology, Superior Quality
Our success as a premium preserved flowers wholesale provider lies in cutting-edge technology and attention to detail. We use advanced dehydration and dyeing techniques, including a soaking dye method that replaces plant cell pigmentation for deeper, fuller coloration. As a result, in sealed conditions, our preserved flowers can last up to 10 years.
From planting to raw material selection, production, styling, and packaging, every critical detail is personally overseen to guarantee the highest standards.
“Good flowers sell themselves,” Li says. “Expanding the right channels and connecting with the right buyers is key.”
Thus, in addition to growing through e-commerce, Aoli Flower Co. has strategically expanded into the global preserved flower market.
Tailored Products for Global Markets
As a professional preserved flowers export company, Aoli Flower Co. customizes products for different global audiences:
- Japan: Favoring natural styles, customers prefer light, elegant hydrangeas and large champagne-colored preserved roses, exported after careful stem processing.
- Europe & America: Inspired by a love for bold, textured designs, our exclusive fluffy bunny tails are highly popular.
- Middle East: With a preference for luxury and grandeur, our “Queen Margaret” bouquet — combining Aoli’s finest varieties — captivated the audience with its rich, visually striking presentation.
Currently, Aoli primarily serves B2B customers, exporting premium preserved flowers to markets across Europe, Germany, the United Kingdom, Australia, and the United States. We have been a major supplier to Japan for nearly 20 years.
Recognizing Dubai’s role as a hub for the Middle Eastern flower market, where daily flower consumption reaches 10 million stems, we see vast opportunities for Yunnan preserved flowers to further expand across the UAE, Qatar, and Abu Dhabi.
Expanding into Home Decor
While building a strong international reputation, Aoli is also pioneering in the domestic home décor preserved flowers market. We are innovating new product lines using diverse floral materials — including large champagne roses, exclusive bunny tails, carnations, sunflowers, and others — perfect for stylish home decor and soft furnishing applications.
“Our home decor series is under active development,” says Li. “Once established, it could be several times larger than the traditional gift market.”
Empowering Communities Through Flowers
Rooted in Songming, Aoli Flower Co. is not only growing beautiful products but also creating significant social value. Employing around 60 full-time workers, the company increases workers’ incomes by 50,000 to 100,000 yuan annually. Collaborating with over 50 local suppliers, we are proud to support rural revitalization through the power of flowers.
Currently, our artisans are crafting preserved carnation bouquets for Mother’s Day — heartfelt gifts symbolizing eternal love.
“Yunhua” Going Global
Yunnan’s flower industry is embracing a full-chain development model, from seed breeding and planting to market expansion. Songming County, an essential hub of the “Yunhua” brand, continues to drive the growth of preserved flowers export and the cultivation of cymbidium orchids, phalaenopsis, calla lilies, and fresh-cut flowers.
With a firm commitment to sustainable, green development, this “beautiful industry” is quickly transforming into a “happiness industry,” bringing prosperity to communities across Yunnan.
