About Vans
The Vans Story


The Vans StoryVans Floral Products began with Jacob Van Namen, as a one-man effort, bringing fresh cut flowers to market in a pushcart. That was over fifty years ago.

Today Vans has grown into a chain of wholesale houses located throughout the Midwest and Southeast. Collectively we have almost  200,000 square feet? in the eight strategically located distribution centers. The fresh cut flower cooler systems within these centers exceed 50,000 square feet. Our modern facilities are designed to provide the best of both worlds for walk-in shoppers and delivery system customers.

Our approach to obtaining and marketing product is an innovative philosophy that incorporates all aspects of the flower industry. We are vertically integrated as producers, importers, brokers, processors and distributors to position our company in the role of an industry leader. We are affiliated and partnered with diverse firms worldwide to consistently bring our customers the entire spectrum of floral products at competitive prices.
