2. Holiday Gift Wonderland: If you do not have yet the time, capacity or even the equipment to do personalized gifts, how about curating a splendid array of Christmas goodies and giveaways? It’s all about helping folks find the perfect present for their bossess, officemates, inaanak and everyone else on their list.
3. Christmas Goodies and Spirits Think wine, liquor, scrumptious hams, and oh-so-delicious cakes. People celebrate with spirits, and that means there’s an opportunity to deliver the joy right to their doorstep. But remember, this venture comes with a dash of regulation, so tread carefully. Charcuterie board has been popular to Filipino’s Media Noche and Noche Buena and why not create something like this or maybe sell ingredients for their DIY charcuterie board.
