Our Story: Established: 1978 At Mayesh, we pride ourselves on being a leading distributor in the wholesale flower industry by providing beautiful and unique flowers to many of the country’s top florists and offering exceptional customer service. While the official story of Mayesh Wholesale started in 1978, the story behind the family began much earlier. Roy & Gerrie Dahlson raised their nine children in the flower business starting in the late sixties, when Roy took a job on the LA Flower Market. The Dahlsons purchased a few flower shops in the early seventies, appointing their oldest children to work in the stores making flower arrangements and local deliveries. Roy also got a job with Jack Mayesh Wholesale at that time, selling flowers until he finally bought the company, opening its new doors on October 1st, 1978. What started as a three-man operation slowly developed into the business it is today, with 22 branches nationwide. In the eighties, Mayesh became one of the first importers from Colombia on the west coast and was the first to import directly from Holland. From then on, CEO Pat Dahlson had a vision for the company to stand out from the other vendors and take a different path, focusing on high-end, boutique flowers and sourcing the most unusual product from around the world. Looking Forward: If you ask Pat Dahlson to describe our commitment to this vision, he’ll tell you that “the first flower to be grown in outer space will be on Mayesh’s floor, guaranteed.”
