Plan around the deadline
UAE National Day gifts 2026
Every occasion has an artwork deadline before it has a date. These pages carry both, so you order while the stock and the pattern choice still exist.
UAE National Day
2 DecemberSadu-pattern sets, flag scarves, badge kits and branded hampers for 2 December. Demand peaks in the first week of November and imported Sadu stock lands slowest in exactly that window.
Artwork deadline: 5 November for branded stock, 12 November for ready sets
Ramadan & Eid
Varies annuallyDates boxes, drawer boxes with foil calligraphy and client hampers. We hold board stock in Dubai from September, which is the only reliable way to meet a date that does not move.
Artwork deadline: Four weeks before your delivery date
Birthday gifts
Year roundStaff birthday boxes at a fixed per-head cost, held in stock in Dubai and released monthly against your HR calendar — so nobody chases a purchase order twelve times a year.
Artwork deadline: Stock held for monthly release
Weddings & anniversaries
Year roundFavour boxes and guest gifts made to your dimensions, with foil monograms and ribbon finishing. From 100 boxes, produced in Dubai so a late change to guest numbers is a scheduling question.
Artwork deadline: Six weeks before the date
Graduation gifts
May to JulyAcrylic awards, photo folders, printed stoles and lanyards for graduation season. Names engraved individually up to 72 hours before the ceremony, because recipient lists always change late.
Artwork deadline: Three weeks before the ceremony
Christmas gifts
DecemberClient hampers, drawer boxes and branded year-end sets. December collides with National Day on the production floor, so mid-November is the deadline that actually holds.
Artwork deadline: Mid-November
New Year gifts
JanuaryDiaries, planners and desk sets branded for the year ahead. Anything carrying a printed year has a hard deadline in late November, because dated stock cannot be carried over.
Artwork deadline: Late November for dated stock
Thank you gifts
Year roundCandle sets, leather pieces and curated boxes for appreciation and long-service gifting — branded discreetly, because a thank-you gift with a large logo reads as advertising.
Artwork deadline: Ten working days
