**Christmas gifts delivered to individual addresses, without the festive faff
**
Choosing Christmas gifts for your staff and customers is the enjoyable bit. Getting them to everyone? That’s where the festive spirit can start to wobble.
There are colleagues working from home, customers spread across the country and offices closing on different dates. Suddenly, your thoughtful thank-you involves a mountain of boxes and someone asking where the packing tape has gone. Again.
At Identity Merchandise, we can help with the whole job: choosing branded gifts, putting the packs together and arranging delivery to individual addresses. Your recipients get something worth opening, and your team gets to carry on with the day job.
One Christmas gifting project, plenty of different doorsteps
An office gift handout only works if everyone is in the office. For businesses with remote workers, regional teams or customers in different locations, individual delivery makes much more sense.
It means the colleague who rarely visits head office can be included in the Christmas thank-you. So can the customer you won’t see before the holidays.
Tell us who you’re sending to, how many gifts you need and when you’d like them to arrive. We’ll help you bring the products, packaging and distribution together into a manageable plan.
**A gift that feels like it came from your company
**
Our IdentityBox service brings branded products together in a gift pack, with ideas and designs developed around your branding. Standard and custom-sized boxes are available, with branded packaging to suit the contents.
For Christmas, think about the moment someone opens their parcel. What would make them smile? What would they keep? And what feels right for your business?
A few directions to explore with us:
- The festive coffee break: a branded insulated cup paired with a seasonal treat.
- The winter wind-down: a cosy gift and something enjoyable to open when the laptop closes.
- The playful thank-you: a branded game or puzzle to bring out over the Christmas break.
- The useful January upgrade: a well-chosen notebook or piece of drinkware that earns its place in everyday life.
The best combination depends on your audience, budget and delivery requirements. You don’t need to fill a huge box to make a thoughtful gesture.
Leave the packing and sending to us
Even a straightforward gift becomes a sizeable task when it needs to go to lots of separate addresses. Products need bringing together, parcels need packing and each one needs to reach the right person.
We can coordinate that work for you, so your meeting room doesn’t have to become a temporary dispatch department.
We’ll help you consider the practical details alongside the creative ones: how the contents fit together, how they’ll travel and what needs to be ready before dispatch. A lovely presentation matters, but it also needs to work as a parcel.
Good timing starts before December
The date that matters is when your recipient can actually receive their gift. A parcel arriving before Christmas is little use if the customer’s office shut three days earlier.
We’ll work back from your preferred arrival window, allowing for product availability, branding, packing and delivery. Agreeing the plan early gives everyone more breathing room, especially where bespoke products or packaging are involved.
To get started, it helps to have:
- Your approximate recipient numbers and budget.
- Your preferred delivery window and any office closure dates.
- An up-to-date list of delivery addresses, ready by the agreed deadline.
- Details of any different gift versions, sizes or dietary requirements.
You don’t need every answer before speaking to us. An early conversation helps us shape the options around the time available.
A small parcel can make a shared occasion
There’s a useful example on our IdentityBox page: Prospero wanted to celebrate its 20th birthday with staff working from home and across 11 branches. Boxes of chocolate brownies helped bring the celebration to the team.
Christmas gifting can serve a similar purpose. When people aren’t all in one place, a physical gift gives them something tangible to enjoy and a personal reminder that they’ve been thought of.
For customers, it’s also an opportunity to say thank you beyond the usual end-of-year email. Choose something they’ll enjoy using, and your branding can stay in view well into the new year.
Christmas gift delivery: your questions answered
Can you send Christmas gifts directly to staff and customers?
Yes. We can arrange delivery to individual addresses as part of your gifting project. Let us know the destinations and quantities so we can advise on the arrangements.
Can the gift box carry our branding too?
Yes. IdentityBox offers branded boxes as well as branded contents. We’ll help you choose packaging that suits the products and the impression you want to make.
How early should we order?
As soon as you have an idea of your requirements. Timings depend on the products, branding, packaging and destinations. We’ll confirm the schedule for your project rather than give you a one-size-fits-all Christmas deadline.
Give the gifts. Hand over the logistics.
Whether you’re thanking customers or treating your team, we’ll help you create a Christmas gifting project that looks considered and is easier to organise.
