At the intersection of Roscoe Boulevard and Orion Avenue, sits Socal Wholesale Flowers and Supply. With a building of 24,000 square feet, the wholesale flower shop is one of the biggest in the San Fernando Valley.
The owner Herbert Francisco Rodriguez first started selling flowers sixteen years ago, and opened up his own business in 2015.
“It’s something I never thought I would be doing, and I love it so much,” he said. “To put a smile on people’s face when they see flowers makes me happy.”
