Flomaru’s founders, Ali and Amal, with their cats

A Canadian startup

Bring your Canadian business to customers here and abroad.

Sell to people shopping for themselves, buying for someone in Canada or sending a gift. Customers browse in their language and pay in their currency.

Flomaru began with wanting to send a meaningful gift to someone we couldn’t be with.

More reasons for customers
to buy from you.

you deliver.

Meet the founders

Ontario, Canada

The people behind Flomaru.

Ali Shaverdi with Yuki

Ali Shaverdi

The problem solver

(Founder & CEO)

Ali has lived apart from family since childhood. He knows that caring from a distance includes the everyday things: finding what someone needs and ordering it on their behalf. He's the one who spots a problem and starts figuring out a way through it.

Yuki

The prettiest girl in the world, according to her people. Small, smart and far too clever to fall for a treat when a vet visit is involved.

Amal Aqel with Simba

Amal Aqel

The creative

(Co-Founder & CCO)

Ali finds a solution; Amal makes it look and feel right. She shapes Flomaru's design, brand and customer experience, paying attention to the things people see, read and use. Together, they turn an idea into something people can feel comfortable using.

Simba

The cutest boy, with a full-time need for affection. He'll stand between you and your keyboard until you pet him. If you're busy, a paw resting on your foot will do.
