Corporate Gifting for Christmas 2025

13 October 2025

Corporate gifting has always been a great way to strengthen relationships, show appreciation and leave a lasting impression. But the expectations around what makes a ‘good’ gift are shifting quickly. As workplace culture evolved, sustainability becomes the norm and remote connections remain important.

With this, companies need to think more carefully about what they give, when they give and how those gifts reflect their values.

2025 gifting trends

This year, corporate gifting is all about thoughtfulness, relevance and authenticity. The biggest trend is sustainability - eco-friendly materials, ethical sourcing and low-waste packaging are now standard expectations.

Customisation also takes centre stage, with customised gifts and curated experiences that reflect the recipient’s preferences. Companies are also favouring local and artisan products with a ‘story’ behind them, while leaning towards subtle branding and practical items people will actually use.

Finally, gifting is shifting from being a once-a-year festive activity to a year-round relationship-building strategy, making milestones, new hires or client successes.

Branding with Gadsby

Hamper lid stencilling

Traditional wicker hampers are always a favourite, but they become truly memorable when customised with your own name or logo. We specialise in stencilling our wicker baskets, designed with reuse in mind - making them a smart and lasting way to boost brand awareness. 

With minimum orders starting at just 20 hampers and a lead time of 7-14 days, it’s an affordable and effective branding choice. Place your order by 14th November to have your hampers ready in time for Christmas. Explore our full range of hampers here.

Fabric printing - liners, ribbons and bags

Our split willow hampers come with a full willow lid and split willow base, complete with extended straps designed to fit our hamper liners. These liners can be customised with your own logo or branding, adding a thoughtful finishing touch while reinforcing brand recognition.

Available in black or cream, the liners are made from 140g/sqm cotton and tailored for a perfect fit- so your hamper retains its elegant shape without sagging or slipping. They’re simple to install too, fastening securely around the hinges with easy hook-and-loop strips. Order by 31st October to ensure they’re ready for Christmas.

This year, we introduced ribbon and fabric bags to this section of our services. Our stocked jute bags are perfect for adding your logo or name to and branded ribbon makes a lovely finishing touch.

Our knowledgeable sales team is always happy to help and can advise on how to get the best results, as certain logos and styles work more effectively than others. If you’re interested, give us a call on 01278 437123 or email [email protected] to discuss your options.

Bottle boxes for laser engraving

Our wooden wine boxes provide the perfect surface for laser engraving, turning a simple gift into something truly personal. The engineered plywood lids allow for sharp, precise engravings, ensuring every detail of your message or design is beautifully clear. The natural wood finish creates a striking contrast against the engraving, making it especially effective for intricate patterns or artwork.

Whether you'd like to feature your company logo, a heartfelt message, or a unique design tailored to the recipient, these engravable wine boxes offer an elegant and versatile way to bring your ideas to life. Place your order by 28th November to get you bottle boxes in time for Christmas.
