When companies make their employees or customers happy

The end of the year is fast approaching. We are all interested in the subject of "gifts". We maintain a close relationship with our employees and customers. We'd like to thank them for their loyalty and partnership. Every year, the New Year's party is a way for the company to say thank you to its employees.

There are several ways to salute someone's work or loyalty: expressing your gratitude orally by shaking someone's hand, writing a small personalised card or offering a gift basket. It's easier to find the right gift if you know the person well. If not, how do you go about it? There's no such thing as a one-size-fits-all gift.

Creative and useful gifts

Making a gift achieve its purpose and be seen as a sign of appreciation is far from easy. A biro with a company logo on it is probably not the right choice. That said, the gift must be useful or it will end up forgotten in a drawer. The people in the company responsible for choosing a gift for employees or customers take these considerations into account.

If you'd like to help make a suggestion to the colleagues in charge of these issues, our Category Managers have put together a selection of creative and useful ideas. Alternatively, there are always the famous buy vouchers to save the day.

Every product can have a logo or signature. For these and other service requests, contact us by e-mail. For larger quantities, we will be happy to provide you with an individual quotation.

My favourites

The Xtorm backup battery is a power pack. What I like: it can power both smartphone and tablet. In a world where we like to need to always be reachable, it's the perfect tool.

As I live in the city, I very often get around by bike. For these journeys, lighting is essential. It doesn't necessarily have to be powerful, as I mainly travel on well-lit roads. However, I want to be seen by other road users. The knog lamps fulfil its role exactly.

I travel a lot, by plane too. As a rule, I check in my beautiful leather weekender. But what it lacks is a padlock. The Pack Easy combination padlock protects the contents and meets TSA requirements.

As Head of B2B, I'm keen to learn all about the purchasing processes our business customers apply. My mind buzzes when it comes to the automisation of daily orders, services designed for projects and flexible financing models for A–Z workplace solutions. Bright ideas generally come to me over an espresso in our company's very own café «Pause».
