Do you have a fun company culture? Every successful business relies on quality, engaged employees. To retain quality employees, it's important to have a positive company culture that makes the employee feel included, engaged, inspired and appreciated. In honor of January 28th being National Have Fun at Work Day, we recommend building a company culture that is fun and keeps employees engaged with tangible appreciation. What kind of tangible appreciation? Gift baskets are always a hit, whether for a team in your company or an individual. 

Making gifting a part of your company culture isn't difficult. There are all kinds of reasons why you might send a gift to an employee. Here are just a few reasons: 
 

• Signing a new big client
• Work milestone or anniversary 
• Employee birthday
• Upcoming holiday
• Employee buys a new home
• Employee has a baby or adopts a new pet
• Team reaches a major goal or milestone
• Express gratitude
• Just because "you're doing a great job" 

Research shows that employees of companies with a culture of fun and giving provides many benefits to the business: 
 

• Keeps employee morale up and reduces burnout 
• Shows appreciation in a tangible, memorable way
• Keeps employees engaged and inspired 
• Cultivates a positive attitude in the workplace

What should you include in your employee gift baskets? How well do you know your employee? If you know your employee is into gourmet coffee or teas, that is a great thing to include in their gift basket. Other ideas could be branded items that they can use proudly everywhere they go such as drink tumblers, mugs, jackets, bags and other gear. Food gifts are also very popular, such as chocolates, nuts, popcorn, cheeses and sausages, crackers with marmalade, peanut brittle and other snacks. King's Gift Baskets can help you put together a customized basket for any of your employees or teams that will have the wow factor you're looking for in an employee gift.
