5 Hard-to-Shop-For People & Why Fruit Gift Baskets are Perfect

Having trouble coming up with the perfect gift for a special someone? Some people are just harder to shop for…you’re not sure what they like, you know what they like but you don’t feel qualified to get it for them, you’re on a budget, your recipient lives far away. There are many reasons why you might be struggling to come up with just the right thing.

Lucky for you, you can be sure to get your message of good will and caring across with a fruit basket from Hale Groves! If you’re craving some unique, can’t miss gift ideas to show the folks on your gift list (at home, at work and at a distance) how much you care, we have dozens of options that are sure to hit the spot.

Sending beautifully presented orange fruit baskets or pear baskets for gifts is a convenient yet thoughtful gift option that is sure to be appreciated. The assortment of items inside a gift basket is sure to have something for everyone, and it can be shared with the whole family to make your thoughtfulness go even further.

Here are just a few folks on your list who would be happy to receive a fruit gift box from Hale Groves:

1. The Friend Who Lives at a Distance

   Maybe your old college roommate’s side of the dorm room was decorated with posters of their favorite rock band or white Siberian tigers, but chances are that’s not what they’re into these days (particularly if they now have a family)! Getting a feel for what your old friend might like can be difficult if you don’t get much chance to visit, which makes an assorted fruit basket makes a great alternative to taking a stab at choosing home décor items or family games they might already have. Choose one with a variety of fruits and treats inside if your friend has a family so you can be sure there’s something for everyone inside.

2. The Honored Citizen in Your Life

   You really can’t go wrong when you send an elderly friend or relative a gift of fresh fruit. For one thing, fruit fits with most dietary sensitivities. For another, a person who has lived in the same house for many years probably doesn’t need much. Finally, a gift of fruit is a gift of convenience – since it’s on most people’s grocery lists already, your gift of fruit can save your loved one a trip to the store (or at least give them one less thing to shop for). Consider enrolling the senior citizen in your life in one of Hale Groves’ Monthly Fruit Clubs – we guarantee they’ll be thrilled!

3. The Friend with Dietary Restrictions,

   If you know someone with a nut allergy, diabetes, or just trying to drop a few pounds, premium fruit from Hale Groves is a safe and very appreciated gift. There are very few dietary restrictions that don’t allow for delicious, fresh, succulent fruit, and many where fruit is a benefit (such as a pear basket for diabetics – pears’ nutritional benefits actually help to manage the condition, as well as providing the consumer with some guilt-free sweetness).

4. The Important Client

   Corporate gifting has become standard practice for many businesses, and no wonder – it’s a great way to show your clients you appreciate them and solidify a business relationship. But what should you give your business contacts? If you want to show your gratitude and make an impression at the same time, a fruit box or basket (like a pear basket from Hale Groves) is a great choice. Choosing a gift basket that contains an assortment of fruit and treats gives your clients a selection and increases the likelihood that your gift will contain something they like. It can also be shared, which makes your gift (and your brand) go even further!

5. The Proud New Homeowner

   A gourmet gift basket is a perfect idea for someone who has just moved into a new house, apartment or condo! Not only does it mark a special occasion in a special way, it also makes life a little more convenient for someone who has been so busy rearranging furniture and hanging pictures that he or she might not have had too many chances to go to the store. And if your recipient likes to entertain, an assortment gift (like a pear and cheese basket) will make it easy for them to get to know the neighbors!
