The main target for corporate Christmas hampers are manufacturing SMEs with 50 to 200 employees, professional firms such as accountants and lawyers, as well as large corporations with a presence in the area. These companies often look for gifts that reflect the local culture and emphasize the values of quality and tradition typical of the Lombardy region.
The seasonality of the Christmas market in Como is influenced by the strong tourist component linked to the Lario, with many visitors going to the area during the holidays. Company Christmas baskets can exploit this opportunity to promote typical Sicilian DOP/IGP products, offering a touch of authenticity and genuineness that reflects the refined taste of the local inhabitants.
