Local Gifts

At JNJ Gifts and More, we believe in the power of supporting small businesses and incorporating local artisan products into our corporate and client gifts. This approach not only provides unique, high-quality items but also appeals to conscious consumers who value sustainability and community support. Here’s how you can include local and artisan products in your corporate gifting.



Why Choose Local and Artisan Products?

  • Support Small Businesses:

Purchasing from local artisans helps sustain small businesses and contributes to the local economy. It’s a meaningful way to give back to the community and show your recipients that you care about where your products come from.

  • Unique and High-Quality:

Artisan products are often handmade with great attention to detail, ensuring high quality and uniqueness. These items stand out from mass-produced goods, making your gifts truly special.

  • Sustainability:

Many local artisans use sustainable practices and materials, making their products environmentally friendly. This appeals to eco-conscious consumers who value sustainability in their purchases.

How to Incorporate Artisan Products:

1. Curate Locally Sourced Gift Boxes:

Create gift boxes that feature a selection of products from local artisans. For example, include handmade home decor like wall or table plaques, wooden coasters, handmade cheese boards, and city/town gifts. These items showcase the variety of local talent and provide a delightful assortment for the recipient.


2. Personalize with Local Flavors:

Incorporate local gourmet snacks such as artisanal cheeses, handcrafted chocolates, locally roasted coffee, or unique condiments. These regional touches add a personal and memorable element to your corporate or client gifts.


3. Highlight the Story:

Share the stories behind the artisans and their products. Include a note or card that tells the recipient about the makers and their craft. This connection adds depth to the gift and enhances its sentimental value.

4. Collaborate with Artisans:

Work directly with local artisans to create custom items exclusive to your gift boxes. Whether it’s a specially designed piece of jewelry or a custom-made leather item, these collaborations can result in one-of-a-kind gifts that leave a lasting impression.


Examples of Local and Artisan Products:

Handmade Home Decor:

Items like wall or table plaques, wooden coasters, and handmade cheese boards add a touch of elegance and local charm to your gift boxes. Let us create your company's words or tagline on these handmade items for a unique and personal gift.
