Give The Gift of Good Taste
Food is the ultimate gift, but itās more than that, too. Corporate holiday food gifts offer an experience that can be enjoyed immediately. Theyāre memorable and, hopefully, delicious. Plus, who needs more stuff? Gift cards, and even beautiful gifts like flowers, arenāt very personal. Food is more thoughtful, whether itās a homemade family recipe or a customized order from their favorite restaurant. If you want your clients to feel seen, get them a food gift that calls back to something theyāve mentioned before. But donāt worry if you canāt get that personalāāthere are some food gifts that have universal appeal, and plenty of showstoppers most people wouldnāt take the time to make at home.
Food is Universal
It can be hard to come up with unique corporate gift ideas that people will actually like. But, everyone eats. Itās a universal rule. What exactly everyone eats is a different story, but you can work with dietary restrictions. Plenty of Goldbelly options come gluten-free, dairy free, nut-freeāāyou name it. You can order vegan and vegetarian gifts and kosher or halal gift packages.
Food gifts are great because they can be easily shared. Whether youāre hoping your team will open them together and eat in the office, or take them home to share with their family, thereās an immediate reward.
Food Triggers Nostalgia
Think of your favorite holiday memory and chances are it involves food. Gathering around the dinner table with family, cooking together, decorating cookies, drinking hot chocolate after a day in the snow, or the one restaurant you always go to for celebrationsā¦food is nostalgic.
When people are asked what they miss from home, they often bring up a regional dish. Tacos in LA, Texas BBQ, New York-style pizza or Chicago deep-dish, for example. Gifting regional foods is a great way to add a personal touch to corporate life. It can also be a fun way to share your own food culture with your team if you work far from home.
If youāre gifting to a client from New York but you live in San Francisco, send them bagels! Did you have a fun work trip to the South? Biscuits are just a few clicks away. Does your coworker from the Northeast talk about how much she misses her hometown bakery? Surprise her with a box of treats. Food gifts foster connection and are easy to make personal. That little bit of extra effort goes a long way and will be much more appreciated than another corporate branded blanket or other generic gift.
Perfect for Group Moments & Celebrations
Not all food gifts need to be personal, however. Some are best shared. For those, go for widely beloved options like pie, cake, cookies, or pizza.
Having an in-office celebration? Get a cake from an iconic bakery.
If you meet remotely, you can send everyone the same gift so they can open them together and āshareā on screen. Goldbelly gifting allows you to send one product to multiple recipients, each with an individual gift message so you can still add a little bit of personalization.
If youāre looking for a holiday gift your clients will love, give the gift of food. Goldbelly makes corporate gifting easy. And, if in the end you want to stick with a gift card (you really canāt go wrong)āāweāve got you covered there, too.
