In today’s BB Podcast episode (No. 122), we’re visiting with Imelda ‘Mel’ Ramos, owner of Cali Wholesale, a flower wholesale business in Carlsbad, California.
Imelda’s story is a testament to the power of passion, perseverance, and strategic thinking. Her journey began with a deep-rooted connection to agriculture, thanks to her father, who was a grower of vegetables and flowers. Her early exposure to the world of farming laid the foundation for her future endeavors in the floral industry. And the success of Cali Wholesale is an obvious result of Mel’s hard work, kindness, and devotion to her customers.
