It seems there is always a reason to buy a great corporate gift. Maybe you are gifting your employees for the holidays or buying a “congrats on your promotion” gift for a coworker. Maybe you are chipping in for a gift for your boss for National Boss’ Day in October or pooling for a gift for the office secretary on Administrative Professional’s Day in April. Then there’s National Employee Appreciation Day in March, and, well, there are a lot of reason why you might be shopping for a great corporate gift.
Corporate gifts can be tricky to purchase, though. You might not know your coworkers or boss very well, or at least on a personal level. You don’t want to gift anything that could be taken out of context or deemed inappropriate but you still want the gift to feel personal and let the recipient know you put careful thought into the gift you selected.

Different types of corporate gift baskets
Gift baskets are a great way to give someone multiple items that feel personal and useful and make a great presentation. But compiling a gift basket for corporate use is different from compiling a gift basket to give to a friend or family member. A corporate gift basket should feel thoughtful and unique but also remain professional and not overly cutesy.
A few great examples of corporate gift baskets might be:
- Chocolate gift baskets
- Candy gift baskets
- Gourmet food gift baskets
- Wine and cheese (if appropriate and the recipient is of legal drinking age)
- Snack gift baskets
- Floral gift baskets
What can I put in a corporate gift basket?
Food is generally a great item to include in gift baskets because it is something that everyone can use and appreciate. It is personal but also professional and shows thought and care from gifted to recipient. Just be sure you inquire about any potential allergies or dietary restrictions before purchasing your gift.
After selecting the type or theme of gift basket you want to gift your employees or coworkers, consider what you will include in your gift basket. Popular items might include:
- Candy
- Snacks
- Gourmet cheese and crackers
- Different kinds and flavors of popcorn
- Nuts
- Chocolate
- Drinks
- Napkins
- An elegant box or container that can be reused after being emptied
After selecting the items you wish to include in your gift basket, consider personalizing the gift a little more by including a functional item branded with your company’s logo for an above-and-beyond touch.
- If you’ve decided to gift your employees a gourmet wine and champagne gift basket, why not include a customized cheeseboard with your company’s logo?
- If you are gifting a snack gift basket complete with a few yummy drinks (non-alcoholic drinks such as sodas and seltzers are always a hit!), consider giving customized coasters to recipients with the company logo on them.
- If your budget is smaller but you still want a small degree of personalization, consider including gift ribbon with your company’s name emblazoned on it.
