CEAGESP Guaratinguetá is a distinctive branch of the network: the operator describes sales of flowers and plants rather than conventional fruit and vegetable trading. It is located at Rua Raul Pompeia 303, Vila Bela. The published site area is 22,504 m², with 1,443 m² built upon. These measurements come from a profile without a measurement year. The operator explicitly states that this description has no flower and plant volume statistics, so figures from another branch have not been substituted.
The profile also mentions storage of fresh produce and dry goods such as rice and beans. Storage does not establish that these foods are offered for sale at the flower market. Accordingly, the product list retains only the confirmed flower and plant groups. Thursday sessions run from 08:00 to 18:00 for registered customers and from 09:00 to 18:00 for the public; Saturday hours are 08:00 to 13:00. The branch number is +55 12 3132 3413. Check the timetable before travelling.
A florist or garden-centre buyer should agree the type of material, quantity and collection date with a particular seller. For container plants, specify pot diameter, height, shape and flowering stage. For cut flowers, stem length and stems per bunch matter. Without a clear specification, an apparently cheaper offer may concern a different quality standard that does not suit the intended customer segment. Photographs of the actual batch can make a remote enquiry more useful than a generic product image.
Prospective suppliers should ask about admission, space allocation, registration and charges. Before loading a vehicle, clarify whether goods are collected directly from it or displayed at a pitch, and who provides trolleys or other handling equipment. Protection against overheating and leaf damage belongs in the supplier’s own transport plan. These are preparatory questions, not confirmation that a particular service is available throughout the premises or included in a market access charge.
When comparing offers, retain the species and variety, plant size, pricing unit and packaging details. Regular buyers may find it useful to record actual delivery cost and the proportion of plants damaged during transport. The venue’s significance is as a local channel for ornamental products. Its property measurements should not be interpreted as food-trading statistics or as evidence of a particular annual flower sales volume.
