Merryvent supplies Christmas gifts for clients: branded advent calendars (stock calendars with a printed sleeve from 50 pcs for 2026), Christmas hampers with logo from 25 pcs, baubles from 100 pcs and chocolate Santas from 500 pcs. Budgets can be planned around limits such as $25 (US), €50 net (Germany), €73 incl. VAT (France) and 200 zł (Poland). Not tax advice.
Why an advent calendar works for client gifting
Most client gifts arrive in the same week of December and are opened once. A branded advent calendar arrives before 1 December and stays on the desk for 24 days, often in a shared office where colleagues see it too. That makes it a client Christmas gift with a long, visible presence.
For gifts dispatched later in December, a Christmas hamper with logo or a branded bauble are suitable alternatives. Recurring client programmes are described in our Client package.

Branding that stays professional
- Logo on a sleeve or card rather than across the whole product, so the gift reads as a gift, not as advertising.
- A personal message behind door 24 or on the hamper card.
- Consistent colours on box, ribbon and card.
- Gift policy awareness: modest value, branded items and alcohol-free options make approval easier for recipients bound by anti-bribery rules. See compliance.
A free digital mock-up is provided within 1–2 working days, so you can circulate it internally before deciding.
