Despite their affordable prices, Tet gift baskets are still unique, imbued with traditional meaning, with messages of health, peace, and happiness in the new year.
Vegetables and fruits… in Tet gift baskets
As a sales team leader for a real estate company, Ms. Kim Chung sees Tet not only as an occasion to show gratitude to customers but also as an opportunity to strengthen important relationships. For her, Tet gifts are not only a way to show appreciation but also a bridge to develop and expand relationships in the future.
However, with the difficult business situation of the past year, no more bonuses, low salaries, and shrinking commissions, choosing a gift made Ms. Chung feel "headache". "Although Tet is still more than a month away, I have started to worry about searching the market, thinking about how to choose a gift that is both meaningful and suitable for my limited budget", she shared.
After careful consideration, Ms. Chung decided to choose a fruit and vegetable gift basket as a thank you gift. According to her, this choice is not only practical but also unique, showing sincere concern for the recipient's health, in line with the spirit of simplicity but still meaningful.
Similarly, Ms. Le Thi Chi (a preschool teacher in Go Vap district) said she also intended to choose a vegetable gift basket after receiving a similar gift from a parent of a student last year.
“The baskets of green vegetables both surprised and warmed my heart. Unlike the heavy, elaborate gifts, this basket of vegetables was light and sincere,” Chi recalled.
Impressed by the sincerity of the gift, this year she decided to apply this idea to her loved ones. “I will choose a vegetable basket to give to friends and relatives. It is both practical and unpretentious, but still conveys care and wishes for good health,” she added.
According to experts, affordable, practical gifts such as gift baskets of agricultural products, vegetables or fruits from reputable suppliers are becoming a trend, popular thanks to their novelty and affordable prices.
To meet that demand, the Ho Chi Minh City Union of Trading Cooperatives (Saigon Co.op) has launched many unique Tet gift baskets of At Ty vegetables, combining vegetables with Asian and European spices such as Hai Duong garlic, Vinh Chau shallots, and New Zealand onions. The price of these gift baskets is only from 31,500 VND.
In addition, Saigon Co.op also launched more than 100 Tet gift baskets with diverse designs and types. Products in the gift baskets include nuts, jams, tea, candies, coffee, wine, with prices ranging from VND99,000 to VND1.4 million. The supermarket also applies a discount of up to 8% compared to the original price when customers order in large quantities.
A representative of Saigon Co.op said that this year's gift baskets are a combination of traditional and modern features, suitable for all needs, from display to gifting to individuals or groups.
In particular, Saigon Co.op members who purchase a Tet gift basket with a bill of over VND1.4 million will be able to participate in the program “Shopping Hamper – Surprise Gifts”, receive a secret gift box with the chance to win attractive gifts and receive a Tet gift basket worth up to VND500,000. This program is valid from now until December 18.
In addition, in the “Membership Gift” program, from now until January 28, Saigon Co.op will reward members at the platinum, gold, and silver levels with practical gifts such as high-quality white porcelain bowl sets, shopping vouchers worth from VND50,000 to VND100,000, and 2025 Tet lucky money envelopes.
