Top Five Premium Business Gifts for Christmas
As Christmas draws near, so too does the search for premium business gift ideas to say thank you to key clients, partners and staff. Whether you’re recognising customers or employees, celebrating year-end milestones, or preparing for festive events, choosing the right promotional gift strengthens connections and shows appreciation. It is important to choose items that combine practicality with desirability, style and flair.
Below, I’ve highlighted some of my favourite premium options that shine in these darkest months. Promotional products with attractive finishes, thoughtfully crafted materials and carefully manufactured to last for a long time can serve to impress your target audience. Let’s unwrap these festive promotional gifts.

MUGnificent Gift Ideas (Terrible Puns)
Drinkware is traditionally a popular option during the holiday season. Take, for example, the Bjorn Recycled Stainless Steel Mug. Its copper vacuum insulation and double-walled construction keep your drinks hot for much longer than a conventional ceramic mug. And its handle is crafted from responsibly-sourced beech. This is a practical and eco-friendly gift that your customers will cherish and use again and again!
Why Are Mugs A Good Promotional Product?
Drinkware is universally loved and used daily, making it a versatile choice that will bring your brand to your customers’ attention repeatedly. Pairing the Bjorn mug with a gourmet tea or coffee sachet, adds a special touch (and yes, you can get these branded, too!) Choosing a branded mug gift also places your brand is in your customer’s hand – and often sat next the computer – where buying decisions are made.
Bags of Choice
Quality bags are a great option for corporate gifts, offering both functionality and style. The Case Logic Reso 17 Inch Laptop Backpack is both a very attractive gift and an item people can use all year round. Made from highly durable, quality materials, it features padded shoulder straps, a side mesh pocket and two main compartments. It is also designed to hold a 17 inch widescreen laptop with a front pocket with various slip pockets and a front speed pocket for quick access. Gifting your customers a bag gives them a portable item to remember you by.

Alternatively, take a look at the Case Logic Advantage 15.6 Inch Laptop and Tablet Bag offers the same style and professional features, which is perfect for corporate clients on the move.
Why Are Laptop Bags A Good Promotional Product?
Gifting bags like the Case Logic Backpack or Case Logic Laptop Bag can impress even the most discerning of clients and employees. With quality design, materials and manufacture, these are the perfect accessories for a modern, on-the-go lifestyles, and ensure your customers will be carrying your brand for many years to come.
Elegant Stationery That Doesn’t Stand Still
A hardbacked notebook and pen set is a timeless gift that has regained popularity in the last few years. A quality notebook adds a touch of sophistication to any professional setting. The Marksman Thalaasa Recycled A5 Notebook stands out with quality and environmentally friendly credentials. The Thalaasa notebook has a polyester cover that is made from ocean-bound plastic that has been collected from coastal areas. This makes this notebook a more sustainable choice since it helps to reduce plastic waste. Featuring 80 lined sheets with FSC certified 80 g/m2 recycled paper, pen loop, elastic closure, ribbon marker and accordion pocket. Perfect for meetings or personal journaling, it seamlessly combines fashion with function, making it an excellent gift for year-end planning.

Why Are Notebook Sets A Good Promotional Gift?
A quality notebook like the Thalaasa notepad uses eco-friendly materials, combined with high functionality to make an ideal gift for environmentally-conscious modern professionals and students. The large branding area is in front of your target audience, repeatedly, over a long period of time and your own eco-credentials are boosted by the very nature of the gift. They also make a very appropriate gift for conferences, functions, training and events.
Choose the Right Writing Instruments
Put your brand in their hand by gifting with premium writing instruments. The Parker Jotter Recycled Ballpen is the latest incarnation of an absolute classic quality pen. It grabs attention with its high-quality design, recycled components and high-capacity ink cartridge. The iconic pen includes a Parker Quickflow®refill in black and it comes supplied in a Parker presentation gift box. It’s a gift that recipients will use daily while remembering the brand’s dedication to their corporate social responsibility. It is also refillable for many years’ use and brand exposure.

Premium writing instruments like the Parker Jotter are ideal for recognising hard work and achievements during year-end events. These writing tools not only offer daily use but also keep brands in the hand and at the forefront of the mind, long after the holidays have passed. This is a gift that is almost guaranteed to be kept and used by your target customer or your employees. Additionally, the pen is a universal gift, useful to almost every recipient.
Refreshing Reusable Bottles
Why not use the power of a big brand to promote your brand! With the Camelbak Chute Mag 600ml Vaccum Insulated Bottle, you will impress even the most exacting customers.
