Gift basket retailers separate themselves from the competition by placing foods and gifts into alternative containers instead of only using baskets. This kind of “out of the basket” thinking sparks the creativity needed to meet the increasing demands of today’s buyers.

What containers can you turn to when baskets won’t do?

  • Wheelbarrows and flower pots add growth to gardening and new home gift sales.

Another container that’s gained ground on baskets in recent years is the die-cut gift box.

Several manufacturers distribute these attractive vessels, which are designed on all four sides to resemble any imaginable theme. Available in various sizes and shapes, these boxes ship flat, demand little storage space, and are easy to assemble.

Thinking “out of the basket” increases your profit margin, proving that your style of gift basket creation is limited only by your imagination.
