The corporate gifting calendar every HR team should keep

The single biggest cause of a bad corporate gift is a short lead time. Engraving, colour-matched packaging and multi-address dispatch all need runway — three weeks is comfortable, six is ideal for festival volumes.

We recommend four fixed moments: onboarding kits dispatched on day one, work-anniversary gifts batched monthly, Diwali in a single October run, and a year-end thank-you for clients.

Standardising on one range — say bamboo drinkware plus a cork diary — keeps branding consistent and lets us hold stock for you rather than sourcing fresh each time.
