While the business is based in Montreal, its soul came into being in the boreal forest, and its mission bloomed as naturally as a flower: to bring the richness of Quebec\u2019s boreal forest to the world. This is the portrait of an entrepreneurial adventure with a unique flavour.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The story of Flo\u00e8m, a business that specializes in herbal teas and northern aromas, started as a modern-day fairytale. Co-founder Roxane, at the time a CEGEP student, was recovering from a serious concussion after a snowboarding accident. On a trip to Rimouski to visit the family of her boyfriend (and co-founder), she stumbled upon Labrador tea. She remembered that her brother had come across some in the remote regions of the north.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was a eureka moment, an epiphany. She had never considered starting a business, but she immediately knew she would market this plant, which held so much promise, but which was still unfamiliar to Quebecers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1800\" height=\"1012\" src=\"https:\/\/www.evol.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Cueillette-myrique-web-edited.jpg\" alt=\"Une personne cueille de la myrique.\" class=\"wp-image-18050\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.evol.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Cueillette-myrique-web-edited.jpg 1800w, https:\/\/www.evol.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Cueillette-myrique-web-edited-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.evol.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Cueillette-myrique-web-edited-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.evol.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Cueillette-myrique-web-edited-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.evol.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Cueillette-myrique-web-edited-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.evol.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Cueillette-myrique-web-edited-600x337.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1800px) 100vw, 1800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-business-is-born\">A business is born<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the car on the way home to Montreal, the couple picked a name and knew they had started down the path of entrepreneurship. One week later, they registered the name, and a first order of $2000 was placed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Picture them canoeing along lakes and rivers, accompanied by their two cats, in search of the precious plant. Modest beginnings, but with an advanced system D (from <em>syst\u00e8me D<\/em>, a French term for resourcefulness) and an iron will.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other ideas soon germinated. But the road was winding, and there were plenty of challenges along the way, particularly with packaging. For quality and design, they used good old trial and error, with lukewarm results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But everything was about to change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-key-event\">A key event<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2021, an appearance on the show <em>Les Dragons<\/em> was a turning point. The entrepreneurs had a revelation: the business needed a stronger identity more in line with their mission. A new name (the first was PilKi), new branding, and new packaging followed. The effect was immediate: Flo\u00e8m was positioned as a dynamic, modern business rooted in nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These roots are vital for Roxane and Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric, who are as passionate about the outdoors as they are about the need to work from a perspective of sustainable development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.evol.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Ensemble-Decouverte-vert-web-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Une vari\u00e9t\u00e9 de tisanes de l'entreprise Flo\u00e8m.\" class=\"wp-image-18044\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.evol.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Ensemble-Decouverte-vert-web-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.evol.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Ensemble-Decouverte-vert-web-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.evol.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Ensemble-Decouverte-vert-web-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.evol.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Ensemble-Decouverte-vert-web-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.evol.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Ensemble-Decouverte-vert-web-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.evol.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Ensemble-Decouverte-vert-web-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.evol.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Ensemble-Decouverte-vert-web-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.evol.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Ensemble-Decouverte-vert-web-50x50.jpg 50w, https:\/\/www.evol.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Ensemble-Decouverte-vert-web.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.evol.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/EP-ouvert-web-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"De la tisane pr\u00e9sent\u00e9e dans une cuill\u00e8re.

From the sustainable harvesting of plants in Quebec forests to thinking about the circular economy, Flo\u00e8m strives to minimize its environmental impact. Its innovative use of by-products, such as aronia pulp, is testament to this approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-growth\">Growth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, Flo\u00e8m has diversified and grown beyond Quebec\u2019s borders. With a line of seven herbal tea blends and new projects in the circular economy, the company is looking to expand into health food supermarkets and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The business is already making sales elsewhere in Canada, the U.S., France, and Switzerland. \u201cEurope has a more developed herbal tea market than here. And there is a great deal of interest in exotic flavours. Some Michelin star restaurants use our aromatics,\u201d the young entrepreneur says. She will soon be training as a tea sommelier to expand her expertise and innovate in creating her products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Drawing on her personal experience, Roxane offers invaluable advice to young entrepreneurs: find a balance between thought and action. Don\u2019t wait for perfection to launch a project, but don\u2019t rush ahead eyes closed either. As with a fine herbal tea, balance is key.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Flo\u00e8m is looking to the future with optimism, despite economic uncertainty. With plans for geographic expansion and product diversification, the business is positioning itself as a key player in high-quality teas and herbal teas, rooted in the values of sustainable development and entrepreneurial creativity. It offers a meaningful example of what it is to be an entrepreneur in the 21st century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-left has-pomegranate-color has-text-color\" id=\"h-\">\u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:5px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Thanks to the engagement of invaluable partners: \u00c9conomie Qu\u00e9bec, through its agent Investissement Qu\u00e9bec, the Government of Canada, National Bank, the Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC), the Fonds de solidarit\u00e9 FTQ, and Fondaction, Evol has a large envelope to support, through conventional loans, businesses with inclusive, diversified ownership that generate positive social and environmental impacts in line with the UN\u2019s sustainable development goals (SDG).<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-left has-pomegranate-color has-text-color\" id=\"h--0\">\u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">To discover their products<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/floem.ca\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Floem.ca<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Flo\u00e8m, reminiscent of poem, is the name of a unique, young Quebec business.
