QUALITY ASSURANCE

  1. Much of the quality of a rose depends on handling before and during distribution.
    • Kanaka Roses are never out of water for more than 15 minutes once harvested
    • Kanaka Roses are pre-cooled for 24 hours post-harvest to ensure optimal vase-life
    • Kanaka Roses are hand inspected for quality control
    • Kanaka Roses are graded and shipped fresh 3 times per week
  2. Roses are available in different brands, just like other products on the marketplace. Kanaka takes branding seriously and follows strict quality grading standards to keep their brand integrity

The grade of the rose represents the level of quality. The higher the grade, the more flawless the rose.
