Seastone, a Provo, Utha-based supplier of specialty gift card packages and gift card promotional programs, recently announced plans to advance the gift card category by revamping its packaging program.
“The gift card industry has matured rapidly in its brief 10-year history and is here to stay,” said Phil Rist, retail analyst at BIGresearch. “2006 was the year of the gift card, growing to an estimated $82 billion. We are now seeing the maturation of the gift card package category and will see some innovative developments in this area as a value-add to gift cards.”
Over the past three years, Seastone has enhanced its gift card packaging, with the capacity for massive scalability and speed-to-market. The company even helped office supplies retailer Staples stock up for the holiday gift card season by delivering a full nationwide rollout of gift card packages in under three months.
Seastone provides specialty gift card packaging and offers gift card promotional programs through its Give-A-Gift brand. The company works with many national retailers such a Kohl’s, Safeway, Walgreens and Wal-Mart to create packaging that appeals to consumers and increases gift card sales.
