12 products you can use for End-of-Year gifts
1. Picnic Blanket
One picnic blanket is the perfect amount. You could gift a picnic blanket to your employees either by itself, or you could add it to a bundle or hamper, to set the mood and make it more of a gifted experience. Encourage your employees to enjoy the outdoors and sunshine during the New Year break — what better way than gifting them the means to do so?
Some of our favourite picnic blankets we offer for End-of-Year gifting are;
2. Duo of Glasses
Two glasses to go with your picnic blanket bundle! It’s starting to looking like a ripper Summer picnic with all these good things being gifted by your company as End-of-Year gifts.
We’ve got some great options when it comes to couple glasses. Trending glass styles like Ribbed champagne glasses, we even have some shatterproof glass. Otherwise, we’ve got some classic Stemless Twin Glass Packs to suit anyone’s style.
3. Trio of Socks
Socks in your Christmas stockings? Gifting socks for Christmas is an all-time favourite. Some may think it’s boring, but when it comes to socks — you can never have enough! Happy Socks are perfectionists when it comes to creating fun Christmas sock packs. So make your own version of branded socks in a trio pack for your employees as an End-of-Year gift.
The best part about gifting a trio of socks, is getting creative with the packaging. There are some great ideas out there, from using ‘beer’ cans as the packaging to ‘camera’ boxes and more.
We’ve got an excellent range of socks that we’re sure your employees will enjoy wearing both at work and at home;
4. Cheeseboard & Knives Set (4 piece set)
Another item to add to that ideal picnic bundle is a cheese board set with 3 cheese knives included. There’s a number of different styles with these 4 piece sets; some are swivel boards where the knives are placed inside the board, others come in premium packaging accompanying the cheese board. With all these options available, we recommend thinking about the product’s end use — how will your employees use the cheeseboard? If you’re hoping for them to take it on picnics, then the swivel set is easy to pack up. If you want them to enjoy a premium cheese board just for home, then the premium packaging options would be the ones we recommend.
5. Flask Set (5 piece set)

Skittle Throw is a thrilling game where you aim to knock over 12 logs to score points. The catch?
