Miami International Airport (MIA) has solidified its status as the U.S. capital of fresh-cut flowers, especially leading up to Valentine's Day. With over 90,000 tons of flowers arriving from Colombia and Ecuador, the airport breaks its own records, showcasing an increase of 3% from the previous year. This surge in flower traffic, valued at around $400 million, is managed by thousands of workers and relies heavily on an efficient inspection process, with only 2% of shipments inspected by customs specialists, ensuring quality and pest management.
