Drayton’s range of Christmas Items & Christmas Gifting is extensive. The focus in this article is mainly on Advent Calendars, because (as crazy as it seems) the deadline to order some of the bespoke styles is fast approaching!
Branded Advent Calendars are a fantastic way of keeping your name in front of clients, partners or staff for the entirety of December. These are ideal for PR Campaigns, or staff appreciation gifts. Many companies send these to clients or influencers as a thank you but at the same time keeping their brand on show, daily.
Below I have detailed some of our more popular Advent Calendars. Along with the Traditional Chocolate options, we have a range of bespoke and tailor-made styles too.
The Spirit of Christmas Advent Calendar
The Spirit of Christmas is a 12-door Advent Calendar filled with…you guessed it…spirits! You can choose the exact drinks yourself or let us choose a mixture of flavours. This is presented in a luxury magnetic gift box branded with your design both inside and out, together with each mini box containing the spirits (or you can select one of our stock designs). For an extra special touch, why not personalise the outer box with the recipients’ name too?

When do orders need to be placed by?
Depending on the level of personalisation, we would need to finalise your order by the end of August for these (58 days to go!).
Bespoke Advent Calendars
If you’re looking to create maximum impact, then our fully tailored advent calendars would be perfect for you. We can craft these in different shapes and sizes, filled with any contents you desire – even your own products. For example, as part of a PR campaign for a car manufacturer last year, we created a cube advent calendar as below. Behind each door was a fun fact about the companies’ history apart from the last door which contained a model car.

Stocking Advent Calendar
Something a little more unique is our branded Stocking Advent Calendar. The stockings themselves are handmade at Drayton HQ. You can choose the colour of the body and the fur, as well as how you’d like it printed. We can also personalise these with individual names as a special touch. The image below shows one version we created for PepsiCo last year. The handmade stockings were filled with; a water bottle, Christmas Cracker (containing a Chocolate Lindt Santa), playing cards, tree ornament, Christmas Pudding, a box of Mince Pies, a metal straw, chocolate melting stick, stress Santa, hand warmer, bottle opener and torch. All of which were branded, of course!

When to order by?
Ideally, all orders for this style need to be ordered by the end of August / beginning of September.
Traditional Chocolate & Vegan Calendars
Traditional Chocolate Advent Calendars are still a firm favourite every year. Even though these follow a familiar format, the outer design can be unique to you, as in fact can the inners. QR codes or messages printed on the reverse of the doors. Bespoke chocolate shapes – perhaps in the shape of your logo / products or even faces of your team members. Vegan chocolate is also available.
When do orders need to be placed by?
If you wanted to opt for a more traditional chocolate calendar, then to ensure you have the most choice, you ideally need to order by the end of September (88 days).
