Delight the boss with Interflora South Africa!

Oct. 1, 2009 - PRLog -- Interflora will also be giving away Freedom Hill Wines and wine tasting courses at the Cape Town Wine Academy!

Bosses’ Day is celebrated on the 16th of October annually and is a significant day for employees to pay respect to their boss at work. The day was established in the United States when it was registered at the US Chamber of Commerce in 1958.The day was officially proclaimed as “Bosses’ Day” in 1962 and continues to be a popular occasion for ordering and sending flowers in many countries. South Africans celebrate Bosses’ Day in typical fashion with Bosses’ Day flower deliveries, cards, chocolates and other delicacies to show appreciation for the boss.

“Employees often don’t get the chance to convey quite how appreciative they are of their bosses’ endeavours to provide them with a nice working environment, learning opportunities and most of all, a pay cheque!” says Sharon Louw, CEO of Interflora South Africa. “Interflora has introduced our Turkish Delight special offer as a little extra gift for bosses”.

Ordering flowers for Bosses’ Day is a popular way of spoiling the boss. Flowers ordered through Interflora South Africa are delivered to each bosses’ desk, a gesture which always makes the recipient feel special.

The Interflora catalogue contains other gifts which are a suitable accompaniment to Bosses’ Day flowers. These include a range of wine hampers which can also be won in this Bosses’ Day promotion.

“The Turkish Delight is a little different from the usual chocolate which accompanies flower orders and this creates an innovative touch to flower bouquets without being over powering,” says Sharon Louw. “The wine hampers and wine tasting courses that are up for grabs are also a welcome change from the generic Bosses’ Day gifts available. We wanted to create a special offer which was a no-frills and simple affair. We also know that often people don’t have a chance to break away during the workday and our online ordering facilities make buying a gift a quick and simple procedure with spectacular results,” says Louw.
