Corporate Gifts for Employees

It's been an isolating couple years for employees. On top of that, remote work has opened the doors to endless options for many employees. Which is why employee recognition and retention is more important than ever.

Quality

At Minny & Paul, we source exclusively from small, independently wned businesses. Our artisans care about quality and so do we! We carefully test each product before adding it to the Minny & Paul family. When you partner with us, you know your gift is crafted by caring hands from start to finish.

Packaging

Many gift baskets come wrapped in wasteful cellophane with a one-size-fits-all approach. In fact, many gift baskets are designed only for a single use. It's time for a better, more eco-friendly approach.

All of our gifts are consciously packaged with planet-friendly materials. Unlike the average gift basket, our packaging supplies are recyclable, our packing peanuts are biodegradable, and all of our gift vessels are specifically designed for reuse after unboxing.

Longevity

We believe gifting is an investment and we care about your ROI. Our vessels are designed to be reused around the home, our leave-behind items are high-quality products your employees will actually use, and our small-batch treats always leave a lasting impression. When you gift with us, your employees will feel the benefits long after the gift has been opened.

What our Clients are saying

"We wanted to send something special to all of our employees to mark the one-year anniversary of everyone working remotely. We wanted something thoughtful and unique--something more than a gift card. The entire process was a breeze. The team at Minny & Paul was absolutely wonderful to work with. Very responsive. Very helpful. The product was perfect. Our employees LOVED the gifts and I have been singing their praises ever since." 

Shantel O'Meara, Leer, Wagner & Kohl, PA

"We have received an almost ridiculous amount of praise for the thoughtfulness and quality of the gifts from our clients and partners. Everything from the tree planting to female owned businesses to how great the snacks and treats are have been commented on. I look forward to working with Minny & Paul again."

We may be in a pandemic, but Minny & Paul makes my job so much easier. They are a rare find in the gift marketplace.”

Tessa LUTHER SEMINARY

"In the meeting and event world we are always looking for new ideas to surprise and delight our attendees. Minny & Paul helped us find the perfect gift by creating and curating custom gift boxes for our VIPs so that we could give them a truly memorable experience."

This option allows you to brand packaging elements. Lastly, our Online Shop has no minimums. The downside? No branding.

What is your gift lead time?+-

Yes! We offer retainer based gifting for our business clients. We ship gifts on-demand as needed. When you submit a request with the shipping address(s), we ship the gift(s) within 1-3 business days. We offer 3 month, 6 month and 12 month contracts. Reach out to hello@minnyandpaul.com to learn more!

How are your gift boxes different than the traditional gourmet gift baskets I see from Harry & David?+-

We love a wine gift basket or fresh fruit gift tower like the rest of them, but to break through the noise - a Minny & Paul corporate gift will stand out. Not only because everything inside the gift is from small makers you can feel proud to support, but because the packaging is elevated and eco-friendly. Clients have seen it all, they are looking for something unique that will truly make them feel appreciated.

Do you ship gifts internationally?+-

Yes indeed!

Can I leverage your studio pick up for larger gifts/volume gifting or corporate gift baskets?+-

Absolutely! If you are local to the Twin Cities continue on ;) Orders of 12 or fewer gifts will be available for studio pick up Monday-Thursday from 9:30 AM-4:30 PM. Allow two business days for pick up. For example, if you place the order on Monday, your gift will be ready by 9:30 AM on Wednesday (but possibly sooner). You will receive an email once it is ready. Orders with more than 12 units are subject to a one-week minimum turnaround. A team member will contact you via email or phone should your business gift baskets need additional time for processing.

Do you include receipts in the packaging?+-

No way! We don't want to spoil the gift of course. As the gift giver, you will receive an email confirmation for orders placed online that can serve as a receipt. If you need something additional, please email us at hello@minnyandpaul.com. For business and custom gifts, you will have a copy of the invoice.

Can I send gift baskets for clients to multiple addresses?+-

Absolutely! If you are using our online shop, our "Multi Ship" tool at checkout makes it easy to send multiple gifts to various addresses. If you are ordering more than 25 units with our Online Shop with Branded Touch option, we will email you a .csv file to use as a template for your addresses. We will also provide you with the address template for Fully Custom orders. If you have any questions, you can always email us at hello@minnyandpaul.com.
