Step-by-Step Guide: Building the Perfect Corporate Gift Hamper
1. Set a Festive Theme
Choose a theme that reflects the holiday season, such as:
- Festive Gourmet: Include wine, chocolates, and luxury snacks.
- Relax & Rejuvenate: Feature candles, teas, and spa products.
- Corporate Essentials: Add premium branded items, planners, and tech gadgets.
A cohesive theme ensures the hamper feels well-thought-out and professional.
2. Prepare the Bottle Shipping Box
For hampers that include wine or other bottled gifts:
- Assemble the Colompac DHL Certified Bottle Shipping Box (CP181-101).
- Place the bottle securely inside, taking advantage of the box’s shock-absorbing design.
- Seal the box and set it aside to include in the larger parcel.
The Colompac box protects fragile bottles, ensuring they arrive in pristine condition.
3. Line the Outer Parcel Box
Use an Australia Post Parcel Box to house all your gifts:
- Line the bottom of the box with void fillers, such as shredded paper or air cushions, to create a protective layer.
- This not only protects the contents but also creates a polished unboxing experience.
4. Arrange Your Corporate Gifts
- Place the Colompac box at the center of the parcel.
- Arrange other items like snacks, candles, or branded gifts around it.
- Use void fillers to fill any gaps, keeping the items snug and secure.
5. Add Festive and Corporate Touches
- Wrap individual items in tissue paper or branded wrapping for a polished look.
- Include a handwritten holiday card or a printed thank-you note featuring your company logo.
- Add festive ribbons, bows, or small ornaments for a holiday feel.
6. Seal and Label
- Add a final layer of void fillers on top to ensure everything stays in place.
- Close the parcel box securely with strong packing tape.
- Clearly label the box, and consider adding "Fragile" or "Handle with Care" stickers.
