Fresh flowers attract customers.
Surveys at numerous flower shops throughout the city reveal a wide variety of fresh flowers on display, arranged in various bouquets and baskets. Roses, baby's breath, sunflowers, and other flowers are skillfully combined with wrapping paper, ribbons, and decorative accessories, creating gifts that are both elegant and eye-catching.
Prices for fresh flower bouquets during this period range from approximately 200,000 VND to 500,000 VND, while flower arrangements range from 500,000 VND to 1,000,000 VND, depending on the type of flowers and design. Some imported flower arrangements are more expensive, but are still popular choices for customers due to their elegance and longer display time.
These days, Linh's flower shop, specializing in orchids in Le Thanh Nghi ward, is always bustling with customers. According to Ms. Pham Thuy Linh, the shop owner, the number of flower orders has increased sharply as March 8th approaches. During this period, the shop receives about 100 orders from customers each day. Orchid pots priced from 300,000 VND to 1 million VND are the most popular choice.

At a flower shop in Ngo Quyen ward, Ms. Nguyen Thanh said: "This year's main source of flowers is Da Lat roses with large blooms, many petals, and diverse colors. However, the price of flowers this year has almost doubled compared to last year, so the shop has to consider carefully, and the amount of flowers imported is only about half of what it was last year."
Despite the slightly higher prices, fresh flowers still hold a significant place in the March 8th gift market. With their vibrant beauty and symbolic meaning of affection and appreciation, fresh flowers remain a familiar gift that many people often think of first when wanting to express their care for their mothers, wives, girlfriends, or female colleagues.
Gift combinations are on the rise.

Just as bustling as flower shops, many fruit stores in the city also prepare beautifully arranged gift boxes and baskets. At a fruit store in Le Chan ward, various fruits such as apples, grapes, pears, oranges, etc., are carefully selected and arranged into elegant boxes and baskets. Depending on customer needs, the store will advise and design fruit boxes and baskets suitable for the age and recipient.
These gift baskets are often decorated with bows, fresh flowers, or greeting cards to enhance their elegance. This product line is chosen by many customers because it is both visually appealing and practical. Currently, small fruit boxes range from 190,000 to 300,000 VND per box, while imported fruit baskets start from 350,000 VND per basket.

Gift trends for International Women's Day (March 8th) have become increasingly diverse in recent years. Many consumers, especially young people, prioritize gifts that are both aesthetically pleasing and practical, such as pastries, fruit-infused drinks, or fresh flowers. Many bakeries have also quickly caught up with this trend.
These small but exquisitely designed gifts are perfect for girlfriends, colleagues, or relatives. Prices range from 200,000 to 350,000 VND, depending on the type of cake and decoration. Thanks to their attractive appearance and reasonable price, the products have garnered significant interest from young customers.
Ms. Trinh Thi Thu Uyen, owner of Gấu Healthy store in Le Thanh Nghi ward, said: “Every day, the store receives about 40-50 orders for pastries. We use ingredients such as diet sugar and whole wheat flour to create less sweet pastries, suitable for a wide range of customers.”
Every year on March 8th, Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Son from Ha Tay commune takes the time to choose a gift for his mother. "My mother loves flowers, so this year I chose a bouquet of fresh flowers along with a fruit basket. It doesn't need to be an expensive gift; what's important is showing my care and wishing her good health," Mr. Son shared.
The diversity of gift products not only makes it easy for consumers to choose gifts that suit their needs and budget, but also contributes to making the March 8th gift market in Hai Phong more vibrant. Whether large or small in value, each gift conveys affection and appreciation for women – those who always play an important role in the family and society.
