A Christmas gift from the company is remembered for two things: whether it is something people actually use, and whether it arrived before everyone went home. This page helps with both. It lists the Christmas Packs and gift ideas in our catalogue with their current starting price and minimum, groups them by budget, and gives realistic dates for approving your design so the gifts land before the holidays.
Every price below is an indicative starting price, ex VAT, with personalisation and delivery quoted separately. UK import VAT and duties are paid on delivery. The final figure for your quantities, design and addresses is confirmed in the quote, and requesting one does not require payment.

Christmas gifts for staff.
For a team gift, choose something people will use after the party: a warm layer, a hat for the commute, a mug or bottle for the desk. Clothing works well when you collect sizes early; if the team is large or spread out, items without sizes are simpler to send.
Keep the design wearable. A small logo or a discreet festive motif gets worn in January; a large seasonal print usually does not. If you want one gift for everyone, a single Pack keeps the presentation consistent across offices and home addresses.
- Christmas Sweatshirt, from £24.31 ex VAT, minimum 20 units
- Summit Hoodie, from £22.88 ex VAT, minimum 20 units
- Cinder Heavyweight Hoodie, from £30.02 ex VAT, minimum 20 units
- Crest Beanie, from £6.43 ex VAT, minimum 30 units
- Christmas Socks, from £6.43 ex VAT, minimum 20 units
- Ember Mug, from £6.08 ex VAT, minimum 36 units
- Atlas Steel Bottle, from £12.87 ex VAT, minimum 25 units
For more garments, see custom hoodies, custom T-shirts and branded caps.
Christmas gifts for clients.
A client gift should feel personal and look considered. Desk and travel items with discreet marking (an engraved pen, a foil-stamped journal, a laser-engraved travel mug) suit most relationships, and they carry your brand on the item itself, which matters for the UK tax rule on business gifts explained below.
Check your client's gift acceptance policy first, especially in the public sector, finance and healthcare. Add a signed card and send the gift to the person rather than to a shared reception.
- Ledger Hardcover Journal, from £13.58 ex VAT, minimum 25 units
- Arc Metal Pen, from £6.08 ex VAT, minimum 50 units
- Voyage Travel Mug, from £15.01 ex VAT, minimum 25 units
- Aurora Candle and Card Set, from £9.29 ex VAT, minimum 30 units
- Terrain Cork Desk Mat, from £7.86 ex VAT, minimum 30 units
- Relay Power Bank, from £15.73 ex VAT, minimum 25 units

When to order Christmas corporate gifts.
Work back from the day the gifts must be in people's hands. Standard production is 10 to 20 working days after you approve the digital proof, and 10 to 15 working days for welcome-kit style packs such as Welcome Kit Pro and the Day One Essentials Kit. Transit comes on top and is confirmed in your quote.
The table plans for delivery by Friday, 18 December 2026, the last working day before the Christmas week. It takes the top of each production range and adds the transit buffer we suggest planning with for each destination. These are planning dates, not guaranteed deadlines.
| Destination | Transit buffer | Approve proofs by | Welcome-kit style packs |
|---|---|---|---|
| UK addresses | 5 working days | Friday, 13 November 2026 | Friday, 20 November 2026 |
| Rest of Europe, the Middle East and Africa | 10 working days | Friday, 6 November 2026 | Friday, 13 November 2026 |
| Asia-Pacific and the Americas | 15 working days | Friday, 30 October 2026 | Friday, 6 November 2026 |
- Allow time before approval as well, for the quote, collecting sizes and addresses, and proof rounds. We suggest sending your request at least a week before the approval date.
- If a product page states a longer production time than 20 working days, add the difference.
- Individual shipments to many home addresses take longer to prepare than one delivery to an office; say which you need in the request.
- Past the dates above? Ask anyway. The quote states what can still be delivered and by when.
UK tax: Christmas gifts for staff and clients
General information, not tax advice. Check with your accountant. Sources checked on 12 October 2026.
Gifts to staff: trivial benefits
HMRC treats a small gift to an employee as a trivial benefit, with no tax or National Insurance to pay and nothing to report, when all of these apply: it costs £50 or less to provide, it is not cash or a cash voucher, it is not a reward for work or performance, and it is not part of the employee's contract. If a gift costs more than £50, the whole amount is taxable, not just the part above £50. Directors of close companies can receive trivial benefits worth up to £300 in total per tax year.
HMRC looks at the cost including VAT. Our prices are shown ex VAT and before personalisation and delivery, so compare the full cost per person with the £50 limit.
Sources: gov.uk: trivial benefits, EIM21865 (cost), EIM21866 (cash and vouchers), EIM21869 (directors' £300 cap).
Gifts to clients: business gifts
Gifts to clients are generally not deductible for income tax or corporation tax. The exception is a gift that carries a conspicuous advertisement for your business on the gift itself (not only on the wrapping), is not food, drink, tobacco or a voucher exchangeable for goods, and costs no more than £50 per recipient in total over the year (the accounting period). A branded journal or engraved pen can fit that description; a food gift such as a snack box does not.
Sources: BIM45065 (gifts), BIM45070 (small gifts exception), Corporation Tax Act 2009, s1300.
Christmas gifts for international and remote teams.
Many UK companies have colleagues in Dublin, Lisbon, Singapore or New York, and a Christmas gift that only reaches the London office misses them. We deliver across the UK and to Europe, the Middle East and Africa, Asia-Pacific and the Americas: to one office, to several offices, or to each person's home, so the whole team receives the same gift.
For individual shipments, collect each person's address, phone number and, for clothing, their size in one sheet before you request the quote. For recipients whose size you do not know, choose items without sizes, such as a bottle, mug, journal or power bank.
Delivery to each destination is priced separately in the quote. For UK addresses our prices are ex VAT and UK import VAT and duties are paid on delivery. Plan non-UK destinations with the longer buffers in the order-by table.
Packaging and presentation.
You can choose between two presentation options: a printed kraft box or a rigid gift box. Either can hold a personalised card. The Printed Kraft Box is in the catalogue from £2.86 ex VAT, minimum 50 units.
For a client gift, the rigid box and a signed card do more for the impression than adding another item. For a large staff gift, the printed kraft box is the simpler option.
Sustainability, with documentation.
Each quote includes an estimated carbon footprint per product, and we prepare sustainability reports with Scope 3 data for the merchandise you buy. Certified products come with their certificates on request; the certificate we publish is the GRS certificate of our yarn supplier The Tenth House, which you can see on our trust page.
We do not buy carbon credits and we do not describe any product as carbon neutral. A gift that is used for years is usually the lower-impact choice, which is one more reason to pick useful items.
How to order Christmas corporate gifts.
1. Choose a Pack or items
Pick a Christmas Pack, a gift Pack or individual items from the tables above. Note the starting price, the minimum and the personalisation method.
2. Send the quote request
Give the number of people, sizes for clothing, the delivery addresses or offices, the date the gifts must arrive and your logo. Requesting a quote does not require payment.
3. Review the quote and the digital proof
The quote separates product, personalisation, packaging and delivery and includes an estimated carbon footprint per product. The proof shows your logo on each item.
4. Approve and go into production
Production takes 10 to 20 working days after proof approval (10 to 15 for welcome-kit style packs); the exact lead time is confirmed in the quote.
5. Delivery
To one office, several offices or each person's home, in the UK or abroad: Europe, the Middle East and Africa, Asia-Pacific and the Americas.
Christmas corporate gifts: frequently asked questions.
When should we order Christmas corporate gifts?
For delivery by Friday, 18 December 2026, plan to approve the digital proof by Friday, 13 November 2026 for UK addresses, Friday, 6 November 2026 for the rest of Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and Friday, 30 October 2026 for Asia-Pacific and the Americas. These dates take the top of the standard 10 to 20 working day production range plus a transit buffer; they are guidance, and the quote confirms the real dates. Send your request at least a week before the approval date.
How much do Christmas corporate gifts cost?
Items on this page start from £5.72 per piece (Christmas Cap). The Christmas Pack starts from £85.07 per kit. Prices are indicative starting prices ex VAT; personalisation and delivery are quoted separately, and UK import VAT and duties are paid on delivery.
Is there a minimum order?
There is no single minimum: each product and Pack states its own, from 10 units among the items on this page. The Christmas Pack starts at 20 kits. The Christmas items are concepts, so their final minimum is confirmed in the quote.
Can you deliver Christmas gifts to staff in other countries?
Yes. Beyond the UK, we deliver to Europe, the Middle East and Africa, Asia-Pacific and the Americas, to one office, to several offices or to each person's home. Send the addresses with your request; delivery to each destination is priced separately in the quote.
Are Christmas gifts to staff taxable in the UK?
A gift can be a tax-free trivial benefit if it costs £50 or less (including VAT), is not cash or a cash voucher, is not a reward for work or performance and is not in the employee's contract. Directors of close companies are capped at £300 a tax year. This is general information, not tax advice: check with your accountant.
Can we deduct the cost of Christmas gifts to clients?
Generally not, unless the gift carries a conspicuous advertisement for your business, is not food, drink, tobacco or a voucher, and costs no more than £50 per recipient in the year. A branded, non-food item can meet that test. This is general information, not tax advice: check with your accountant.
Will we see the design before production?
Yes. You receive a digital proof with your logo to approve its position, size and colour, and nothing is produced until you approve it. Production time counts from that approval.
Are the Christmas T-shirt, sweatshirt, hat and socks in stock?
They are concept designs for quotation. The model, personalisation, availability and final minimum are confirmed in your proposal before you approve anything.
Do you offer sustainable Christmas gifts?
Some products state a material such as recycled cotton or cork on their product page. The quote includes an estimated carbon footprint per product, certificates for certified products are available on request, and we prepare reports with Scope 3 data. We do not claim carbon neutrality.
