<p>Gifts are a welcomed addition in every basket.</p>
<p>Baby, corporate, and personal gift items were my first pick as inventory because I wasn&#8217;t sure about food laws in my state.</p>
<p>I was determined to start selling, so instead of buying foods, which may have been against the law, I began by offering customers gift items in unique containers.</p>
<p>Some of those items included:</p>
<li>Spa products</li>
<li>Mugs</li>
<li>Photo frames</li>
<p></p>
<li>Tea cups and saucers</li>
<li>Paperweights</li>
<li>Baby products</li>
<p></p>
<li>Kitchen utensils</li>
<li>Sports items</li>
<li>Stationery</li>
<p></p>
<li>Coasters</li>
<li>Switchplates</li>
<li>Pet accessories</li>
<p></p>
<p>When you begin attending trade shows this summer, consider complementing snacks with gift products. Recipients will treasure the gifts long after the foods are gone.</p>
<p>Before taking my advice, make sure that gift items will be appreciated by clients and receivers. Perhaps people in your region are more likely to buy all-food baskets rather than food and gift collections. Stick to the plan that sells your baskets.</p>
