Cyn-Mar Inc is a family-owned and operated wholesale florist and greenhouse operation, growing quality plants and flowers since 1955. It all began when Wilma Oliver Baker, Cyn-Mar’s founder, received an orchid plant from her husband on their 10th anniversary. She loved it so much that she started collecting orchids.
Soon, local florists were buying her orchids and reselling them, so her husband built a greenhouse, and they began selling wholesale flowers to retailers. Over 66 years later, what started with one orchid has bloomed into a large and successful wholesale operation, run by the second and third generations of the family.
Cyn-Mar is a one-stop shop, offering a wide range of products for florists, event planners, independent garden centers, and specialty retailers. They strive to provide the best quality products season after season, with a goal to lead the industry in quality and service. To achieve this, they have two separate working divisions that act as sister companies: Wholesale Florist Division and Greenhouse Division.
WHOLESALE FLORIST DIVISION
This division provides fresh-cut flowers, pre-made silk arrangements, floral supplies, and plants. They also supply a complete line of floral and hard goods products for every need.
GREENHOUSE DIVISION
Cyn-Mar has over three acres of gutter-connected, state-of-the-art, climate-controlled greenhouses, with two acres of outside field production. They grow a wide variety of flowers and plants in their Pine Level, North Carolina location, and also offer a full line of Tropicals and Dish Gardens they pick up weekly from Apopka, Florida.
