Fritz and Marie both died in 1913.

He started his career as a trainee in the merchant company J. & E. M. Flood, which was run by his father Jørgen and uncle Elias, One of their outlets, the so-called Floodebutik (Flood shop) was "visited by the most distinguished public of the Skiensfjorden", according to one historian. Fritz Trampe Flood also co-managed Bolvig iron works with his brother Niels Weyer Aall Flood. They had inherited the iron works from their father, who bought it in 1841. Towards the end of his career he ran a broker's business and a firm of agents.
