Gift Trends: Christmas, Seasons and Occasions.

September 13th, 2011

During our research for our Christmas and other ranges this year I came across an article that talked about the trends for gift giving this year, they were;

Key trends that will influence gift giving this year are:

Simplicity
Organization/streamlining
Shopping via alternate means (online and catalog)
Nesting
Handwritten correspondence on personalized stationary
Focus on health and fitness
Luxury items for pets

At Hampering Around our focus each year for our gift hampers and gift baskets is always points 1,2 and 3, we also always have correspondence in mind as well. The message that is included in one of our gifts can often mean as much as the gift itself.

One example of where we use the above as guiding principles for our range is our wine selection. We rigorously “road test” many different wines in an effort to ensure the wines we include in our range are something will truly add to the experience. Unlike a traditional bricks and mortar retailer the experience our clients get is upon receipt of the gift. This is where we want our gifts to truly stand out.

Retirement gift baskets and gift hampers

September 7th, 2011

Retirement Gifts – the days of the gold watch are gone!

As personalised gifts become more and more sought after we are seeing companies showing their well wishes with a thoughtful retirement hamper.
A retirement gift is a reward for a lifetime of hard work and we are seeing many of our clients struggling just to find the right gift. A food hamper from Hampering Around is more than a gift: it is a small token of appreciation to show the retiree that all their help and commitment around the workplace for all those years has not gone unnoticed.
It is always sad to see someone decide to leave a company to retire, but equally wish them all the best in their new life. For a great retirement gift, you cannot go past a heartfelt retirement hamper that shows your gratitude.
Hampers are also a great retirement gift idea for a parent or relative who has decided to leave the workforce. Filled with chocolates, nuts and an assortment of goodies, this gift will be treasured long after the food has gone!
