Some managers say that corporate gifting is just an unnecessary expense. However, it is far from the truth. In fact, it is proven to boost relationships with clients and employees, at a relatively low cost. In this overview, we will cover the best practices of sending branded corporate gifts for customers, partners, and employees.
Keeping staff happy and healthy is not only an HR issue. Happy employees are healthy employees, and they are also more productive. Whether you would like to occasionally reward your team with snacks and individually selected gift hampers, or want to provide healthy snacks during meetings, our flexible and completely tailor made solutions can be a good fit.
According to statistics by Myshortlister.com, the number of companies that provide free office snacks is on the rise. While some businesses stick with free coffee and biscuits, Millennials and Gen Y employees are more health conscious than older employees. They try to avoid the vending machine and prefer healthy options. You will be surprised that according to HFCU, the most popular office snack is bananas! Getting fruit boxes delivered to your office is easy with our customisable services.
Apart from regular office snack deliveries, you can also surprise your employees with amazing gift hampers and fruit baskets. From food to self care packages to suit vegan, celiac, lactose intolerant, and nut free employees, you can really say you care much better than with just a card. All gift hampers are customisable, branded with your logo, and delivered to anywhere in the UK. Moreover, you can add a gift card, ribbon, or any other item you wish. Just send us a message and we create your custom order.
Many food hamper and gift basket companies have standard packages with one-size-fits-all solutions and limited customisation options. However, according to Mintel’s recent report, dated in 2022, approximately 26 percent of households avoid dairy products and shop for alternatives. Also, research shows that customers who are on a free-from diet are more likely to buy sustainable products.
The main point of sending gifts to customers - whether it is a Thank-You gift, a birthday one, another special occasion, or a festive gift - is to show them that you care. Sending out a food hamper for customers containing a lot of items they are sensitive to or choose not to eat can be counterproductive. Knowing your customers and their dietary needs/preferences is a good business strategy.
Corporate gifting is a powerful way to build relationships with your clients, reward your employees, and promote your brand. It has plenty of benefits for your business, including branding, staying in touch, and building reciprocity. It shows that you value and appreciate the people who matter most to your business. No matter if it's a gesture of gratitude or a strategic marketing move, corporate gifts can leave a lasting impression.
Branded corporate gifts are much more than just a thoughtful gesture; they can also be a great marketing tool. Are you trying to get hold of a client who hasn’t engaged with you for a long time? A personal touch will make them remember you.
With our gift options, you can add your company's logo or branding onto the gift, to create a memorable and positive impression. Our standard corporate gift boxes are expertly curated to include a mix of tasty and healthy snacks that your clients and employees will love. Moreover, if you know your clients’ dietary needs or preferences, we can tailor the hampers and the contents of the gift box to their personal needs. Just send us a message with your specific requirements and we will customise each package for every client.
According to Peapod, 67 percent of employees are happy or extremely happy when their employer supplies snacks during work. Moreover, the Gartner Group states that 20 percent of employee engagement is linked to feeling like the company cares about them and their wellbeing.
At The Goodness Project, we understand the importance of keeping your team happy, healthy, and fueled throughout the day. Our office snack delivery service provides healthy and delicious options that cater to various dietary needs. If you want, you can simply get fruit delivered fresh every day. From vegan and gluten-free, lactose-free, to nut-free options, we have something for everyone.
You know when your employees are too busy to go out for lunch. That web designer with an urgent deadline, or Emma from accounting who has her head inside spreadsheets. Unfortunately, the easy option for many employees is takeaways. It can be delivered to the office, but holds very little nutritional value. And it doesn’t make your staff more productive.
That’s why many of our clients are opting for healthy office snacks. They are not only better for employees, but also contribute to their overall well-being, reducing absenteeism and burnout. When times are challenging and the bar is set high, employees who are supported by healthy snacks are more likely to pull through and stay productive.
Here are some of the main benefits of regular office snack deliveries.
Millennials and people younger than them like being treated as individuals. They don’t like the mainstream and being treated as one of many. That’s why personalised corporate gifts have gained popularity recently. Personalisation shows respect, consideration, and care. And that’s why they are more impactful than standard gift packages.
Here are some tips on how to create a meaningful personalised corporate gifting strategy for your business: big or small.
In the United Kingdom, KYP or Know-Your-Customer is an important principle in accounting and marketing alike. You really need to know the cultural sensitivities, preferences, and interests of your clients, partners, and employees to create experiences that are tailored to their needs.
Gathering information about your recipients’ interests, dietary needs and preferences, even hobbies is not optional in 2025. If you have a CRM system, this information can easily be recorded by client-facing employees and made accessible to the rest of your team.
Make sure that you have a data protection policy in place, though, so you can ensure that information is only available to those who need it in their role.
It’s important to choose a gift that has a meaning for the recipient but also represents your business. You might want to send Eco friendly corporate gifts or hampers for clients to show appreciation. Our selection of sustainable gifts is perfect for any business mission and ethos.
People remember how you made them feel, not what you said. That personal touch with their favourite brand, a photo card (and of course your logo) helps them feel special. And which client doesn’t want to feel special? The more you customise your corporate hampers the more they will remember how you care and how you made them feel.
You can add their name, a handwritten note, or custom elements that will put a smile on their face.
Of course, the gift you send should also have a useful element. Our edible gifts are great for client care packages or get well presents. Knowing your clients’ taste and preferences will help you craft a custom corporate package you can send as a gift.
Did you know that you can add custom gift cards to your business hampers? You can. From wellness activities to organic self care kits, there are plenty to choose from when you customise your packages. You can also add e-gift cards to the order.
When you craft your corporate gifting packages, you can always add a sustainable and eco-friendly item. From bookmarks to tea mugs and dried wildflowers and even seeds, you know your clients’ and employees’ hobbies and lifestyle, and we deliver.
Today’s employees and business partners are growing more environmentally conscious every day. Sending a responsibly sourced gift will enhance your reputation and corporate image.
Snacks can be a treat for your team, but an increasing number of companies now implement workspace snack deliveries regularly to make healthy snacking a part of a company culture. If one of your corporate goals is to keep employees motivated and healthy, and support their wellbeing with spa or gym memberships, providing fruit deliveries and healthy snacks is the next logical step. You can order your deliveries weekly, or just for team meetings.
Here is a guide to implement snacking into your employee wellbeing programme.
The end of the year is always busy for companies as they take account of their best clients and plan their holiday hampers or gift deliveries.

Everything from biscuits to fudge can be made into a vegan alternative, but what about frosting? Is frosting vegan? If not, does it have vegan alternatives?

It goes without saying that Christmas is indeed my favourite time of year. For most of us choosing that special gift for loved ones is not without its fraught, hair pulling, face grimacing moments of how can I make it thoughtful, personal or unique; all without having to endure hours of traipsing around shops, locating said thoughtful gift, wrapping it and dispatching it!
