Description

Since the dawn of time, people have been giving gifts to one another as a form of expressing one’s love, respect, affection, and commitment, as well as a tradition and a cultural practice.  In many cultures, these gifts were traditionally packaged in some way.  One of the most popular being baskets filled with fruits, nuts, wild game and other foodstuffs, flowers and material tokens.  Today, gift baskets are equally practical and infinitely more creative.  The industry has had an amazing growth over the last 20 years and is now worth around 3.3 billion dollars annually in the US.
