Easter corporate merch in Italy
Pasqua is the spring B2B gifting peak in Italy — branded chocolate eggs, artisan colomba, and premium gift boxes for clients and staff. Production from our Milano hub with bilingual packaging and SdI invoicing.
Easter merch — Italian context
Pasqua holds a unique B2B gifting position in Italy — softer in tone than Natale but no less ritualised. The "uovo di Pasqua aziendale" (corporate Easter egg) is the centrepiece: a large hand-wrapped chocolate egg from a respected artisan (Venchi, Amedei, Vannucci, Lindt Premier, Baratti & Milano) with a co-branded foil wrap or rigid presentation box. Inside the egg, a small branded surprise — keyring, pin, or USB — completes the gesture.
Pair the egg with a colomba pasquale (the Easter dove cake, from Tre Marie, Loison or Marchesi) and the gift becomes the full Pasqua corporate package. Roman professional services and Milano consultancies favour matte-pastel rigid boxes with foil-stamped logo; Veneto and Emilia industrial clients lean toward wicker baskets with regional specialties (asparagi, formaggi, vino). Distribution window is the week before Easter Sunday — typically late March to mid-April depending on the lunar calendar.

Pricing, MOQ and lead times
EUR pricing excluding IVA (22% via SdI). MOQ 50/100/250/500. Lead 5-8 days standard, rush 3 days +35%. Milano hub, nationwide via BRT/SDA/DHL Express Italia. Artisan chocolate producers cap orders by mid-February — book early to lock Venchi, Amedei, or Baratti tier.
Timing tips for Easter
Order by mid-February to guarantee delivery the week before Easter Sunday — artisan chocolate producers (Venchi, Amedei) close pre-orders by February 20 and colomba production scales down after March. For a typical April Easter, commit artwork by February 1 and lock distribution by mid-March. Late ordering pushes you toward generic Lindt or Ferrero options and limits custom-foil-wrap availability.
