In Kazan, the price of carnations has fallen over the year.

      The price of carnations decreased by 2% in 2026, and in May of this year, only minor fluctuations of up to 1% are recorded. As explained to "BUSINESS Online" by experts from popular flower sales points in Kazan, this is related to an increase in the supply of dianthus (carnations) from China and Turkey, lower purchasing power, and a restructuring of the logistics structure as a whole. The average cost of a bouquet of 11 carnations in Kazan is 2,376 rubles. "Carnations, known in floristry as dianthus, are very popular among users due to their durability and ease of care," said Alexander Vennikov, business development manager of the marketplace Flowwow, to our publication. At the beginning of May this year, they are among the top 5 most in-demand flowers in Kazan. The decrease in retail prices is explained by the optimization of purchases by sellers and the restructuring of the logistics structure as a whole. In particular, more flowers are entering the market from China and Turkey, and supplies continue to increase. The reorientation towards more economically efficient import directions logically leads to a decrease in the cost price of dianthus. One of the founders of the company April cash & carry (wholesale flower sales), Ayrat Saifutdinov, also confirmed that the prices for red carnations in Kazan this year are approximately at the same level as last year. The head of the wholesale base "Krokus," Arthur Tsybaev, named two main factors for the decrease in carnation prices. "Firstly, the exchange rate is lower. Secondly, purchasing power is lower, while production volume is the same, even greater than last year, resulting in a certain surplus in the market," he noted.

      Recall that in 2025, by May 9, the price of carnations rose by 10%, reported flower sales point owners. At that time, experts explained this by inflation, the rise in the dollar exchange rate, the complexity of customs procedures, and a decrease in the "harvest." Among other things, the price increase was affected by the poor harvest of tubers from Colombian flower companies. Colombia is considered the world's leading exporter of carnations.
