The PHL location sells T-shirts and other one-of-a-kind gifts and souvenirs.

Lily Palmer Flowers & Gifts offers signature floral designs and unique gifts for travelers. With Philadelphia being one of the country’s leading flower hubs, this store location allows passengers access to custom flower arrangements and other products, like candles, gift cards and more.

“We are thrilled to expand our retail offerings at Philadelphia International Airport,” said Mel Hannah, Vice President and General Manager of MarketPlace PHL. “1920 Merch and Lily Palmer offer wonderful gift options to our travelers for their final destination and have missions that align with MarketPlace’s own values.”

“SLA Worldwide is excited to partner with the Philadelphia International Airport to open 1920 Merch, the first airport store honoring the ratification of the 19th Amendment,” said Sandra Long, Founder and CEO of SLA Worldwide. “One hundred two years ago, the Philadelphia women’s suffrage movement played a key role in securing voting rights for American women. We recognize this milestone with the opening of the new 1920 Merch store in the Philadelphia Airport. We invite travelers to join the celebration by visiting 1920 Merch to view historic photography and purchase one-of-a-kind gifts and souvenirs.”

“My fondest childhood memories revolve around my mother’s brilliant rosebushes and expansive backyard gardens. She loved flowers and plants and the joy they bring to people,” said Long. “SLA Worldwide is honored to introduce the first Lily Palmer Flowers & Gifts, in honor of my mother, to the Philadelphia Airport. The Lily Palmer team looks forward to delighting Philadelphia Airport travelers with the freshest blooms, packaged in an exclusive travel cylinder designed to protect and safely deliver our flowers to their final destination.”
