Why Choose a Bottle of Olive Oil to Mark Your Company Anniversary
A company anniversary — whether it’s the 10th, 20th, 30th or 50th — is a moment for recognition as much as celebration. Loyal customers, long-standing partners and the teams who have helped shape your story deserve a gift worthy of the occasion. The traditional engraved pen or commemorative plaque is now giving way to objects that tell a story and remain part of everyday life.
A bottle of organic extra virgin olive oil, screen-printed with your company logo, anniversary date and a message of your choice, does exactly that. It’s an item that sits on a table, is used in the kitchen, accompanies meals and, each time the bottle is uncorked, reminds the recipient of the connection they share with you.
What This Gift Says About Your Company
Choosing high-quality olive oil, organically grown and produced in Calabria according to a family tradition, sends a strong message: it shows that your company takes care with its choices. This isn’t a gimmick. It’s a gourmet product the recipient will use, enjoy and often ask for again.
Unlike a bottle of wine, which is gone by the end of the evening, or a promotional item that ends up in a drawer, a personalised bottle of olive oil remains visible for weeks in the kitchen or on the table. Few gifts combine everyday usefulness with lasting brand visibility so well.
Three Types of Recipients, One Gift
For a company anniversary, three groups of recipients deserve a distinct approach:
- Your loyal customers: a bottle presented at a gala dinner, tucked into an elegant gift bag or sent ahead of the event makes a more memorable gesture than a greeting card.
- Your partners and suppliers: a premium gourmet gift is often better received than a promotional item because it conveys genuine appreciation rather than simply displaying a brand.
- Your employees and teams: the company anniversary belongs to them, too. A bottle screen-printed with the founding year and the current year is a keepsake that celebrates belonging.

How to Put Together a Personalised Gift for a Company Anniversary
The Label or Screen-Printed Design
The design is screen-printed directly onto the glass, giving it a permanent, elegant finish. You can include:
- Your company logo, in one or more colours
- The year your company was founded and the anniversary year
- A slogan, date or short message
- The colours from your brand guidelines
Our online configurator lets you create your own design, preview it on the bottle and approve the proof before production begins. Create your personalised bottle design in just a few minutes, with no special graphic design skills required.
For large-scale projects, specific design requirements or larger volumes, our sales team can provide tailored support through our personalisation service page.
Choosing the Olive Oil for Your Bottle
A personalised bottle isn’t an empty container: what’s inside matters just as much as its appearance. Two flavour profiles are available:
- Organic green-fruity olive oil: harvested early in the season, with aromas of fresh grass and artichoke and a pleasant peppery finish. An intense profile, recommended for those who know their olive oil.
- Organic ripe-fruity olive oil: rounder and more approachable, with notes of ripe fruit and sweet almond, making it a good fit for every palate and every kitchen.
If you’d like to offer both profiles in the same gift set, the Terracotta build-your-own trio gift set lets you choose three 200 ml bottles, presented in an elegant gold-embossed box that’s particularly well suited to formal occasions. This gift set has just been added to our online collection and is one of our newest options for this type of event.
Quantities and Lead Times: What to Know Before Ordering
A few practical points to factor in from the planning stage:
- Minimum order: 24 bottles. This quantity is suitable for both mid-sized and large events.
- Production lead time: Allow enough time between approving the proof and receiving your bottles. For an event in November or December, placing your order before the end of October ensures timely delivery.
- Packaging: Bottles can be delivered unpackaged or placed in individual gift bags. The Terracotta gift bag with an elegant ribbon is ideal for presenting bottles individually at a drinks reception or gala dinner.
- Shipping: Please specify whether you need delivery to one address or multiple addresses when placing your order through our sales team.

Include a Personalised Bottle in a Larger Gift Programme
Pair the Bottle with a Gourmet Gift Set
For your closest contacts — key accounts, strategic partners and board members — you can complement a bottle with a gourmet gift set. Our build-your-own gift set lets you put together your own selection of olive oil, Modena PGI balsamic vinegar, artisan spreads and savoury spreads. Each product is chosen individually, creating a well-balanced selection that speaks for itself in terms of flavour and quality.
This option is particularly popular with companies that value the art of dining or whose customers work in the restaurant, hospitality or events industries.
A Gift Card for Recipients Who Live Further Away
When your partners are based in several countries or individual shipping is complicated, our e-gift card offers a flexible alternative: each recipient can put together their own order based on their preferences and delivery address. This format is particularly suited to international companies and teams working across different locations.
For Restaurants and Hotels
If your company operates in the hospitality, restaurant or events sector, your anniversary is also an opportunity to strengthen your brand image with your customers. A screen-printed bottle of olive oil placed on every table during the event or given to guests as a keepsake is a thoughtful gesture that builds on the experience you offer them. Our business section is dedicated to projects like these.
