TASTE OF BATH
CELEBRATING 1st YEAR OF
CORPORATE GIFTING
Luxury foodie gifting company, Taste of Bath,
recently celebrated the first year of their
business gifting service by hosting a client
reception at the Macdonald Bath Spa Hotel.
Since launching the corporate gifting side of the business,
Taste of Bath have worked with over 70 business locally,
nationally and internationally- sending a true taste of Bath
across the globe.
The client event showcased eight of Taste of Bath’s
bestselling producers, who chatted to guests and offered
tasters of their products. Eco-delivery partner, Three Bags
Full was also in attendance to show off their electric cargo
bikes that make deliveries across Bath with zero emissions.
Taste of Bath guests enjoyed canapes starring some of
their most-loved products, that were washed down with
other hamper favourites including Bath Gin & Tonics, Electric
Bear Craft Ales and Bath Water.
In a short speech, Jake from design agency Ready,
described his experience of using Taste of Bath’s business
gifting service, sharing with the audience how the agency
works with clients all over the world, but only uses Taste of
Bath hampers to celebrate the business roots he and the
firm are so proud of. Jake said “The service Taste of Bath
offers is something you just don’t get anywhere else.”
Taste of Bath founder Helen Rich said: “Outstanding
customer service, to make the whole experience as stress-
free as possible, is just one of the reasons why our business
gifting service has been such a success in its first year. It’s
also down to the quality of our produce and the authenticity
of our offering – through Taste of Bath, big businesses can
support smaller ones and offer a gift that’s meaningful,
memorable and far from generic. And of course, there’s the
way we incorporate your branding (with personalised tags
and scrolls for each gift box, and ribbons matched to your
company colours) and your personal messages to each
recipient, to put your business at the heart of the gift.
“At Taste of Bath, we’re proud to champion the city’s most
talented independent producers and help put Bath on the
map as a foodie destination. Whether you’re a locally-based
business looking for gifts to celebrate your home city, or you
just want a fabulous present for friends and loved ones, we’ve
got the answer!”
