Gift-giving season is rapidly approaching, and while you might have a good idea what to buy for your friends and family, gifts for your employees is certainly more of a challenge. Whether it’s rewarding a great year, spreading some merriment for the holidays or simply raising morale, gifts can be great for the workplace. But to be successful, they have to be done right. The average gift for the office – and any other place of work – needs to be several things. Inclusive, high-quality and with thought behind it. So when it comes to choosing something personal to your staff, why not give branded gifts a try?

There’s nothing quite like going custom to provide your employees with gifts that are both thoughtful and practical for the workplace – especially when it comes to branded items that reflect the values and mission of your company. Here are just a few ideas to get you started when it comes to looking for suitable branded gifts your employees will love.

Themed shirts and hoodies

T-shirts, sweatshirts or even hoodies are excellent options for employee gifts. Provided you opt for a product that’s inclusive in terms of sizing, it’s quite possible to pick something that will be valued by your employees for its quality, comfort and the message you choose. Whether it’s ‘team’ shirts to increase morale in specific departments or a company-wide gift, making branded clothing a perk is something colleges already do successfully – so why not give it a go for your business? Here are a few options to get you started:

District Perfect Tri French Terry

$\"branded$

Anyone that’s ever worked in an office is familiar with the concern of air con wars. There’s always someone who is too chilly – and that’s always the person sat directly under the air conditioner unit. Hoodies are a fantastic personalized item that is suited for more casual offices, or maybe companies with casual Fridays. This size-inclusive option comes in a range of different neutral shades and a selection of sizes, making it an excellent fit for business slogans and logos. Who says casual doesn’t have to be company-approved?

Alternative Champ Eco Fleece

Perhaps you hold regular out-of-office gatherings, or maybe you want to feel a bit more like a team when it comes to that next sporting event. Maybe you even have some inside jokes in your group that would go great on a sweatshirt. Whatever the reason, this simple but stylish – and size-inclusive – option is the perfect choice to gift your team for that outdoor retreat, at the company Christmas party or even as part of a welcome pack when they join the company. The choice is yours.

Personalized items

Perhaps you want to show your gratitude in a small way after a great year of sales. Maybe you want to gift your team something meaningful for tackling a challenging project. Showing gratitude is nice in any form, but personalized items can make it even nicer. Sometimes the occasion doesn’t quite call for full-on clothing, but a small token would really hit the spot. Here are a few ideas to consider:

$\"custom$

Is there anything cozier than a blanket on a winter’s day? Whether your staff take these home or keep away the chill at their desks, a fleece blanket is always practical and useful whatever your style of living. A personalized, branded blanket is the perfect way to offer something that has value to your employees, and plenty of different uses to suit everyone. Extra inclusive and infinitely practical, it’s certainly an option to consider.

Event-specific gifting

Beyond generic branded gift items, commemorating a particular workplace event or celebration is also well-worth investing in custom gifts for.
