Why UK-Made and Supporting Small Businesses Matters – Especially in Corporate Gifting
Choosing to source gifts locally isn’t just a feel-good decision—it’s a smart, strategic one. At Peace Lily Gifts, we believe where something is made says everything about what it stands for.
From an HR leader curating appreciation gifts to a PA planning for a client milestone, the demand is growing for gifts that reflect a company’s values. UK-made gifts offer a compelling advantage, higher quality, lower carbon footprint and stronger social impact.
When you source locally:
● You support independent artisans, fair wages and the UK economy—strengthening communities where your own teams and clients live.
● You get full traceability, so your corporate gifts are crafted with care, not compromise.
● You help power a sector that contributes over £200 billion to the UK economy annually through manufacturing.
So let's delve into supporting small businesses through your gifting ...
Every gift tells a story — not just of generosity, but of values.
At Peace Lily, we believe gifting can go beyond the ordinary. When you choose to source your corporate gifts from small, UK-based artisans, you’re fuelling a ripple effect of positive impact: supporting local economies, nurturing creativity and keeping centuries-old craftsmanship alive.
🔹 Did you know? There are over 5.5 million small businesses in the UK, accounting for 99.2% of the business population. They employ three-fifths of the UK’s workforce and are essential to innovation, diversity and local economic growth. By supporting even a fraction of them, especially through corporate gifting, we help them thrive, not just survive.
This is where your choices matter.
By partnering with Peace Lily Gift, your corporate gifting becomes purposeful. Our curated, eco-conscious gift boxes feature beautiful products made with heart by independent makers across the UK. From hand-poured candles to small-batch preserves and sustainable stationery, each piece supports real people behind real businesses.
💚 It’s not just about giving a gift. It’s about:
● Showing appreciation with depth and intention
● Aligning your company values with sustainability and social impact
