Choosing a corporate gift hamper

The choice of packaging primarily depends on the contents of the hamper. To combine a bottle with regional or gourmet specialities, a rectangular or oval tray provides a practical base for arranging the assortment. Los Angeles and Manhattan cardboard trays are available in different shapes and sizes. For a more distinctive visual finish, baskets made from metal or wood offer an alternative style.

Capacity is another essential consideration. José antique grey metal baskets are designed to hold two, four or six bottles. The wooden Calypso basket accommodates six or eight 33 cl long-neck beer bottles and includes a bottle opener. These specifications help you select packaging suited to the number and type of drinks being offered, without choosing a format that is too large or too compact.

Packaging designed for corporate gifts

A corporate gourmet hamper can be prepared for the festive season, as a business gift or as part of a campaign aimed at employees and business partners. Rectangular formats make it easy to combine bottles with gourmet specialities, while oval shapes offer a different visual arrangement. Julia black metal baskets and trays are available in several sizes to suit a variety of hamper compositions.

The material also contributes to the overall image of the gift. Cardboard is suited to a clean, structured arrangement, metal adds a decorative presence, while wood complements the traditional character of regional produce. The Gustave basket, presented as a “gourmet treats crate”, is available in several lengths. You can also explore wood and metal packaging to coordinate the container with your selection and your company’s brand identity.

Creating a gift tailored to its recipient

Before preparing your gift hamper, define which items you intend to include, along with their dimensions and weight, then select a suitable shape. You should also consider how the gift will be presented: a hamper intended for a group of employees will not meet the same requirements as an individual gift for a customer or business partner. A tray is suitable for an open, visible arrangement, whereas a carrying case or gift box provides a more enclosed presentation.

Accessories inspired by drinks and appetisers, pétanque, barbecuing or fishing can also give the gift a clear theme. These gift ideas allow you to create a thoughtful package based on the recipient’s interests.
