Every end of year brings the same mission: find THE gift that will please the whole team or your clients without turning into a gadget forgotten by January. What if this year you went for conviviality instead? The dry sausage advent calendar is an original, indulgent and unifying corporate gift — the kind everyone agrees on around the coffee machine.
Short answer: The dry sausage advent calendar is an ideal Christmas gift for companies and works councils: original, convivial and appreciated by everyone. It can be ordered in quantity and suits employees and clients alike. A French artisanal gift that reflects well on the company.
Why give a dry sausage advent calendar at work?
Giving a dry sausage advent calendar at work means making an impression with a gift that breaks from the usual classics. Where the mug or the USB stick ends up at the back of a drawer, a gourmet box creates a genuine moment: for 24 days, your teams or your clients share the same small pleasure. It is a gift that brings people together, that gets talked about and that raises a smile. If you are looking for other formats, our article on the gift hamper for your corporate presents is a good complement.
It is also a choice that suits you if you care about championing French craft: our dry sausages are made in the Ardèche in a family-run business, and you can see how our advent calendar is made, from the mêlée to the drying room. Giving something artisanal also means looking after the company's image.
For employees or for clients?
The dry sausage advent calendar works just as well for employee gifts (through the works council) as for client gifts. For teams, it is a convivial gesture that strengthens the sense of belonging during the festive season. For clients and partners, it is an elegant, memorable business gift that stands out from the usual chocolates and bottles. For a larger budget or an awards ceremony, our gourmet Christmas hampers and our dry sausage boxes can also be personalised.
How do you order for a whole team?
To equip a whole team, it pays to plan the bulk order ahead. Here are the right instincts:
- Plan ahead: send your request as early as October to be sure of delivery on time.
- Estimate quantities: one calendar per person, plus a few spare units for the unexpected.
- Arrange delivery: to a single site, or split across your different locations.

The LBDS tip: for a gift with even more impact, add a short note in the company's name. A simple gesture that turns a gift into a personal gesture.
What budget should you allow for a gourmet works council gift?
The budget for a dry sausage advent calendar for a works council depends on the number of recipients and the range you choose. Good news: gifts given by a French works council benefit, under certain conditions, from an exemption from social security contributions up to an annual ceiling set by URSSAF. We invite you to check the ceiling currently in force with URSSAF before finalising your order.
If the budget per person is tighter, our mini dry sausages and our novelty-shaped minissons offer an indulgent alternative at a lower price.

A successful corporate gift is a gift people remember. The dry sausage advent calendar ticks every box: original, convivial, artisanal and French. Just the thing to end the year on a high note… and a good slice. Would you like a quotation for your teams? That is what we are here for.
