Floral design in Gambia has an emerging presence shaped by community traditions, wedding markets, and urban centers. In cities like Banjul and Serrekunda, floral work is practiced through small shops, market vendors, and event designers, while in rural areas it appears through local celebrations and informal arrangements. Professional pathways are limited, with local training and mentorships influencing skills development, while industry access depends on flower imports, cost, and seasonal availability. Compared to other creative industries in Gambia, floral design sits as a niche craft with visibility shaped by weddings and social ceremonies. With growing demand and small-business support, floral design in Gambia is positioned for selective expansion.
