Corporate Gifts for the Tea Lover

Did you know that on any given day, about one half of the American population drinks tea? The majority of that may be iced tea, and the majority of that may be black tea, but it is still a great number of tea being drunk nonetheless. Coffee may be the more popular choice of caffeinated hot beverages in America, but tea is certainly the one with more health benefits including reducing the risk of heart attack, stoke, and certain cancers among others.

Why not promote tea drinking, while promoting your brand by giving corporate gifts related to tea? One such corporate gift is a stainless steel tea set that includes a teapot with removable filter and a matching mug. Or you could also give corporate gifts such as an Abaca box gift set that includes 30 various tea selections from Mighty Leaf Tea Company. Such items would be perfect for a holiday gift to an important client or a gift of appreciation for the hard work of a valued employee. If you know that your intended recipients are definitely not tea drinkers, than why not offer them corporate gifts that grant them the benefits of tea without consuming it. Corporate gifts such as a green tea bath set complete with shower gel, body lotion, body scrub and bath crystals could still give recipients the lasting benefits of tea. These products with green tea can protect the skin from free radicals that cause damage to skin cells and tissues and even slow the aging process.

Eco-Friendly Corporate Gifts for Employees

Did you know that eight out of ten workers say they would prefer working for employers who they thought to be environmentally ethical? Enforcing an image of environmental consciousness is becoming more and more important to companies across all industries for a variety of reasons – as such eco-friendly behavior is becoming more important to both consumers and employees. Your company can help project such an image by giving eco-friendly corporate gifts to your employees. There are so many different eco-friendly products available today across all categories from apparel made from organic cotton to notebooks and portfolios made from recycled leather. Being green has never been so easy and never looked so good!

With all of the technological advances into today’s recycling processes, and the harvesting of organic materials, corporate gifts generally do not even cost any more than reciprocal items that are not made of recycled or natural materials. Bamboo is one of the most popular sources for eco-friendly items in today’s market. Bamboo is the fastest growing plant on the planet – some species can actually grow up to four feet in a single day! It also produces more oxygen than a forest of comparable size and it can grow without pesticides or chemicals. From bamboo photo frames to bamboo blend polo shirts, this resource is being used for a plethora of products. You could also decide to go literally green and give your employees plants as gifts. You can even find promotional bamboo pot sets that come with a bamboo shoot inside a 100% biodegradable bamboo fiber pot!

Candles – Corporate Gifts to Light Up Your Brand!

U.S. retail sales of candles are estimated at approximately $2 billion annually, excluding sales of candle accessories. This number has grown tremendously in recent years because people are starting to use candles as everyday décor and aromatherapy, rather than only using them for special occasions. Thus, candles would make great corporate gifts as they would appeal to a large number of recipients and likely be used often, providing your business great advertising exposure. There are so many different types of candles to choose as corporate gifts in different colors, scents, and in different shaped containers too so anyone is sure to find the perfect items to fit their company’s needs!

Corporate Gifts That Are Fun And Functional

I know I often write that it is more important that one’s promotional products and corporate gifts be functional rather than fun, but I want to make sure that I do not exclude those items that are fun and functional! One such example is products such as pens or letter openers that rest and spin on 3-D molded bases. These items make great corporate gifts in particular as they often have a very expensive and high-quality look to them, usually manufactured with polished chrome finishes. Sitting on any recipient’s desktop, they provide both advertising for your brand as a functional item that one is likely to use frequently, but a fun item too as it can be easily spun around on its base.
