Based in Randburg, Gauteng, Hamper World offers a ton of thoughtful gift hampers for all occasions be it Mother’s Day, Boss’s Day, Christmas, or for no reason at all.

From mini snack crates to gourmet alcohol hampers, and everything in between, they have them. If you want something to go with your season’s greeting hamper, they have gorgeous flowers too.

What’s great about their hampers is that they are well-presented and packed with goodies, unlike other companies that offer fewer hamper snacks and gifts and price them expensively.

Also, their online shop is simple to use and organised. You can search for the perfect Christmas hamper by using their convenient filter and sort options or clicking the category you want to view.

On the item page, you can seamlessly select the hamper’s ribbon colour and add finishing touches like balloons, chocolates, or a teddy.

Plus, although they don’t take American Express and PayPal, you can use Mastercard, Maestro, Visa, or bank transfer when shopping online.

Hamper World offers same-day delivery on weekdays within the Gauteng area and a bit longer across South Africa. Both of their shipping fees are similar and affordable.

Apart from that, they’ve been highly rated by clients, which certainly makes them one of the best shops for Christmas hampers in South Africa!

If you want a Christmas hamper with a variety of local treats, gifts, and fragrances or one that’s crafted bespoke for a loved one, then Yabulela Gift Hampers is a brilliant choice!

As much as they can, they source their goods from South African suppliers to support the economy and their workers and their families. But if the product needed is unavailable, they use imported products.

Their gift hampers are carefully curated for men, women, special occasions, people with special halal and kosher diets. However, their selection is fewer than those of other companies.

Need good suggestions? You may like their Christmas Sweet Treats hamper comprising Christmas biscotti, a chocolate-coated French nougat, chocolate chip cookies, gooseberry jam, fig syrup, praline crispies, and more.

For the gents, you can check out their Christman Man Treats hamper. This includes smoked almonds, a chocolate bar, an apricot roll, oak-smoked olive oil, balsamic vinegar, a Brittany cheeseboard set, among others, presented in a gift box and hand-tied with a ribbon.

Yabulela Gift Hampers can deliver gifts and gift hampers promptly across South Africa. The delivery fee is calculated upon checkout and there’s likely to be an additional cost for shipping outside of the city.

Same-day delivery is not promised but this is because the owner, Karen, strives to personalise the gift and source a tasty and wonderful set of products for clients. On Google, all of them were very impressed with her excellent communication and bespoke gift hampers.

Customer Reviews

Yabulela gathered a flawless score of 5/5 stars on Google. For clients, the service was efficient and outstanding and they said their recipients were delighted with the beautiful gift hampers.

One buyer named Eleni left this review of the shop:

“Fantastic service. Karen was amazing. So helpful and gorgeous ideas. Sending gifts from the UK is often quite challenging but Yabulela made it easy with excellent communication and stunning gift presentation. Highly recommended and I will definitely use them for all future occasions.”

And here’s one more coming from Megan:

“It has been an absolute delight to work with Yabulela. Karen was so accommodating and helpful, especially impressive given the Christmas rush! The basket is stunning and filled with delicious, locally sourced goodies for our client in Cape Town. Communication was excellent from the first email to delivery confirmation. I’m so glad to have found somewhere that really understands and takes pride in the personal touches that make gifts so special. Thank you so much Karen for making this such a seamless and enjoyable experience.”

3)   Hamperlicious

PRODUCTS	Personalised gifts Wine Flowers Home and living
STARTING PRICE	R572
DELIVERY FEE	Calculated at checkout

ADDRESS	92 Voortrekker Rd, Salt River, Cape Town, 7925, South Africa

Hamperlicious specialises in gift hampers, flowers, and gift items, most of which you can’t find anywhere else. The luxury gift shop is located at 92 Voortrekker Road, Salt River, Cape Town.

For Christmas gifts, they offer food hampers, crates, and hat boxes, a lovely chopping board, hanging panel decor, and decadent treats like an edible Christmas tree, and personalised cake.

But if you want to give a friend or relative a bespoke gift, you can just ask the team and they can put together one for you.

Buying online at this store can be inconvenient since the products load slowly and the client has to check out on a different site. As such, we think that it would be better to order from them by phone.

Now, they make up for this flaw through their affordable pricing and customer service, as clients can verify. And not to mention, they give a satisfaction guarantee in case the product exhibits faults or issues, and so they can replace it with a new one.

They can deliver your gift across South Africa, including major cities like Pretoria, Johannesburg, and Durban. But, do note that their working days are from Monday to Friday only.

For us, we like the fact that they have everything in one store, are known for their fabulous and presentable gifts, and timely deliveries. And that is why we chose them to be on this list.

Customer Reviews

Most people complimented their wonderful gifts and helpful and reliable staff. Furthermore, they wrote that the delivery had been quick and prompt.

Let’s hear Susan’s comment of them here:

“Terrific service, so pleased with my personalized gift it looks awesome and quick delivery! Will certainly order again!”

And Silke gave her feedback as well:

“I have had outright fantastic service from this supplier. Have made numerous orders during the last couple weeks and all received promptly, nicely packaged and great value for money. Have ordered personalised gifts and a cake. Extremely pleased overall. 100% recommended.”

If you have a limited budget for a gift yet want to make someone smile this Christmas, look no further than the Gift Lady!

The Gift Lady is one of the leading options for Christmas hampers in South Africa. Their gift boxes and hampers have festive and creative designs with a nice variety of treats for everyone.

For instance, their Ho Ho Ho! gift hamper has three Santa packaging boxes with a Christmas hat (that you or your kid can use). This is brimming with tasty snacks and treats from handmade toffee to Nomu drinking chocolate.

They have a nut lover’s hamper too with pistachio, cashew nuts, as well as Biltong slices and beef dried wors, and a mini Amarula cream liqueur with a sweet and creamy taste.

If you want to create your own hamper with no intervention from the team, you can do it online. For this, you only need to choose the category and products for a unique gift hamper for someone.

When you buy a product, you can also type in a special message to be put on the card on the hamper for your recipient.

As for payment methods, they take Visa, American Express, Mastercard, and PayPal. Hence, ordering will be hassle-free whether you are buying locally or overseas.

And, you can qualify for same-day hamper delivery if you order before 11:00 AM on weekdays. Saturday deliveries are also available but at a higher shipping fee.

Customer Reviews

Gift Lady holds a 4.5/5 star rating on Google Business. Most people said they had a great experience from start to finish.

Their staff had been quick to assist them the whole time. Also, the gifts were elegant and beautifully packaged, which delighted their recipients.

Here’s what Elize had to say of their service:

“Fantastic product and service! Ordered a hamper and flowers while being in Abu Dhabi – the service was absolutely fantastic. They always assisted quickly, kept me updated, and my friend was beyond happy with her gift! Definitely worth the money – will definitely use them going forward! After my order my mom even used them to buy her mother something for Mother’s Day – same excellent service and product! Thank you!”

Also, Nats left her review about Gift Lady:

“Top notch products and service! *****  Being based in the UK I’ve used Gift Lady for many years now.  There is plenty of variety to choose from, there’s something for everyone!  You can also customise your order, not to mention the ease of shopping through their website.  I’ve always had a pleasant experience and will use them for many years to come – thank you!”

5)   Gifts by Fusspot

PRODUCTS	Father’s Day gifts Birthday hampers Get well baskets Thank you gifts New baby gifts Christmas hampers Valentine’s Day gifts Easter egg hampers Mother’s Day gift boxes
STARTING PRICE	R1,058
DELIVERY FEE	R86.25 – R115

If we are to pay a premium price for a gift hamper, we would want fantastic-quality items in it and great service. Gifts by Fusspot is one of the shops that have been proven to offer both.

From artisanal, local products to signature ribbon touches, they can provide them. Apart from that, they use eco-friendly packaging, fillings, and products whenever they can to lessen the environmental impact.

These two things set them apart from our other chosen shops on this list. But they have their weaknesses too like they have a limited selection online for their gift hampers and boxes.

Part of the reason for this is they mostly customise their gift hampers for clients. The gift can be for any occasion, including Christmas, birthdays, baby showers, graduations, Father’s Day, Mother’s Day, Easter Sunday, and others.

We notice that their site is a bit disorganised as it has different tabs that lead to a different page altogether. Thus, visitors can get “lost” when navigating their website and searching for a gift.

Unlike other companies, they don’t have live chat support with them via Messenger, Whatsapp, or SMS. But, as always, you can give them a ring or email.

They deliver the same day in the local area from Monday to Friday. In some cases, they can accommodate weekend deliveries but you would have to enquire with them first.

By the way, they presently offer winter discounts for certain gift boxes and hampers. So you might want to check this page before buying to get savings in case you like the product.

Customer Reviews

Several clients scored this company a perfect score. They raved about how the owner, Nicolette,  put together a beautiful and complete gift hamper for their respective occasions.

Robynne wrote this review about the gift company:

“Gifts by Fusspot is the place to go for specialised, and personalised gifts!  Nicolette is a dream to work with, has an absolute passion for her business, as showcased by her incredible, and beautifully put together gifts. She offers exceptional customer service. I would highly recommend Gifts by Fusspot.”

Furthermore, Darryn shared this one:

“AMAZING!  Nicolette is a creative genius and a STAR!  I first discovered Fusspot Gifting Studio by chance. I live in the UK and it is SO difficult to send stuff by post to South Africa.  I initially used her service in December and bought two of her beautiful Christmas hampers to send to my brother and his boys.  Nicolette then created a bespoke Birthday Braai Hamper for my brother and just recently created a stunning sympathy basket that I sent to family in South Africa.  I WOULDN’T USE ANYONE ELSE FOR GIFTING IN SOUTH AFRICA!”
