Ep. 185 - Catching Up with a Rising Star: Sahid Nahim of New Bloom Solutions
This week on The Fresh Bunch, we reconnect with Sahid Nahim, President of New Bloom Solutions and host of The Bloom Show. Fresh off receiving the Society of American Florists’ Rising Star Award, Sahid reflects on his journey of building connections, reinventing his business, and shaping the floral industry through creativity, innovation, and community.
We chat about his recent travels to Deliflor Chrysanthemum Week, his upcoming trip to ProFlora, and the evolution of The Bloom Show — now reaching 26,000+ subscribers, producing documentaries, and supporting the industry with over 150 interviews and the annual Bloom Together event. Along the way, we cover everything from tariffs, Ai, to $5 Cuban sandwiches… and yes, even Jimi the Tulip gets a laugh in.
Join us for a great conversation with one of the floral industry’s brightest rising leaders, and see how Sahid continues to bring people and ideas together in powerful new ways.
