European Style Gift Hampers

While assisting clients this past holiday season, we had the pleasure of working with several International vendors for deliveries in each of their respective countries, including places like Ireland, New Zealand, France and England. In fact, one day our staff calculated that we had coordinatined gifts across a total of 30 different cities, 14 states, 5 countries on 4 continents, that day alone!

The European Style Gift Hamper is different from an American-style "Gift Basket" in that the gourmet products are arranged neatly and completely down inside of a trunk or "hamper" style container, lid shut, and tied around with a simple bow. This style elminiates excess filler, packaging and wrap and also makes for a smaller parcel for shipping - using a smaller box and eliminating excess packaging.

Since it has long been our effort to Reduce * Reuse * Recycle, and inspired by our foreign counterparts, we are adding a selection of European Style Gift Hampers (with our own Arizona flair, of course) to our catalog, as well as a variety of other options of "gift baskets" that utilize trays, platters and even some "basketless" designs!
