Why Supporting Small Businesses Matters at Gourmet Gift Hampers Tasmania.

Why Supporting Small Businesses Matters at Gourmet Gift Hampers Tasmania.

At Gourmet Gift Hampers Tasmania, we’re committed to doing more than just curating beautiful hampers. For us, it’s about supporting the backbone of our local economy: small businesses. Every product we select comes from passionate Tasmanian entrepreneurs who pour their heart and soul into what they create.

Why Supporting Small Businesses Matters at Gourmet Gift Hampers Tasmania.

Take one of our recent hampers as an example—it features contributions from 17 different local Tasmanian small businesses, with 29 unique products. Each item represents a story, a family, and a dream. These are products that stand for quality and creativity, showcasing what makes Tasmania special.

Supporting local isn’t just a feel-good gesture—it’s an impactful decision that promotes sustainability, economic resilience, and community building.

When you choose our hampers, you’re supporting:
Job creation: Small businesses employ nearly half of all private-sector workers in Australia, including those in regional areas like Tasmania.
Innovation: Small businesses are known for their creativity and adaptability, often producing goods with a personal touch that large corporations can’t replicate.
Circular economy: When small businesses collaborate, they keep money circulating within the local community, benefiting other local businesses and services.

We purposely and proudly leave out the “big guys” because, as any small business owner knows, every bit of support matters. These businesses face unique challenges and often rely on community backing to thrive. By partnering with local creators, we’re not just selling products—we’re sharing a piece of Tasmania’s identity.

So, as our hampers make their way to the mainland, they’re not just filled with gourmet goods; they carry the spirit of Tasmania’s small business community. We celebrate and amplify these voices, knowing that when small businesses support each other, everyone wins.

Cheers to our local suppliers, and thank you to everyone who chooses to support small businesses. Together, we can keep the Tasmanian economy vibrant and diverse.

We don’t “hide” our suppliers, we promote them and put THEM front and centre at every opportunity.  These are the suppliers that feature in just this 1 hamper:
