Amazing gifts and great customer service. I ordered a gift box for my mum for Mother’s Day and forgot to add a card.

I would definitely would recommend these guys and will be shopping with them again. Thanks team 😊 - 05/05/2022

What beautiful gifts, and such personal service. I ordered a gift box for my mum and forgot the card, then got a phone call from the owner of the company asking if I would like her to write a note and pop it in for me. I would absolutely recommend these guys. - 05/05/2022

Christine M

Such great personal service - extremely rare these days to experience it. I wanted to order an "Auckland" themed (per pic) gift box for a b'day. There was a notice on their website warning of potential delivery delays & to ring if delivery date was critical. I rang & spoke to the co-owner I think, who pretty much reacted immediately, promising to start on the order I was yet to place online, so that it would be ready for their 11am courier due in 10mins, giving it a better chance to reach Picton next day. Outstanding. And it's great to support the NZ food/wine producers whose products go into the boxes too. - 03/05/2022

Dave Hodgson

We recently received a We Love Local care package from my husband’s employer which was an awesome surprise. Then when some friends were having a bit of a hick up we decided to send them a (W.L.L.) care package. Their reaction was one of pure surprise and gratitude. That’s what we love about this product. Supporting local artisans and sharing the love.Thank you. - 02/05/2022
