Especially if they’re leaving the company after years of service, make sure they feel like their work has been appreciated and they’ll be remembered. Their time in your office may be over, but every home needs elegant stationary!

There’s no better way to say “thank you and good luck” than with a glorious bouquet of flowers. From seasonal designs to bouquets with “congratulations” balloons, flowers are a retirement gift staple!

Hobby Gifts

With all the time in the world now on their hands, many retirees like to take retirement as an opportunity to indulge in their hobbies.

Sports

The days of heading home before the game ends are officially over! Get the sports enthusiast in your life even more reasons to love his favorite game with popcorn tins featuring his favorite baseball or football team.

Cooking

Now that they can finally use their kitchen for more than late night meals after work, give them something that gets them excited to cook! Prime cuts of meat are perfect for the griller in your life, while cheese and snack baskets make the perfect gift for the person who loves to entertain.

Alcohol Connoseur

When you don’t have to be up for work in the morning anymore, why not get into craft beer and specialty wines? From wine chillers and wine baskets to beer mugs and socks, these gifts will give anyone a good reason to say, “cheers!”
