The Tanflora Park is the country’s first Agri Export Zone for cut flowers and its contribution has been projected to touch about one fifth of the country’s total production. Rose buds of Red Giant, Passion, Red Palace, and 30-odd varieties are packed in corrugated boxes and sent in refrigerated trucks to Bangalore, from where it is flown to various global markets.
For the first time last year, one million roses left Amudagondapalli, earning the promoters about Rs. 1.5 crore. While this year, Tanflora accomplished its target of three million roses, next year it hopes to touch full production capacity and send 70 million roses abroad.
