Most people are not aware that Maple Ridge Farms did not start as a gourmet gift company. Their roots take them back to when they sold wooden gift boxes to gourmet food companies, some of the biggest names in the business including Williams-Sonoma. In 1979, they developed a novel idea: “Brand a company’s logo on our wooden box and fill it with cheese or other gourmet items. What a great business gift!” A new business was born!
They were the first company to offer gourmet food in packages that included something recipients would retain as a lasting reminder of their gift. They started with wooden collector’s boxes and hardwood cutting boards. Then they added collectible wooden trucks, pencil cups, reusable gift boxes and more. Recently they added gourmet ice cream packages as a summertime treat, another first for the promotional products industry. |
