Gift a great food experience to your employees and clients

Thanks are always in order
Your latest client has just given you the go-ahead on a recent proposal. A long-term partner has just hit a milestone, their 50th order with your company for the year. Or that big new lead has just put their faith in your team’s capacity to deliver. Whatever the specifics, nurturing lasting business relationships is done most elegantly by giving more than you gain.

An unforgettable fine dining experience is the perfect way to show your appreciation, and it couldn’t be easier for both you or your client. Bottles of wine or spirits can be tough to get right, and there’s little sadder than a gift collecting dust (or getting splashed with coffee) on display in the office common area. A Gourmet Traveller Gift Card, with its wide selection of meals at a choice of premium restaurants, will be the kind of thanks your client will adore.

Let your client choose the reward
With a pre-loaded Gourmet Traveller Gift Card, you’re spoiling your client with their own choice of preferred taste and style, and a great food experience will be that much more special for it. It’s the kind of freedom that is always appreciated because your client can treat themselves to their own idea of an incredible night out. And everyone loves to talk about their incredible night out (and you and your business is likely to get more than a few mentions).

Australia’s leading restaurants have partnered with the Gourmet Traveller Gift Card program because they know the premium dining experiences they provide are ideal for the sort of people you’d want to reward. You can have the utmost confidence your client will be taken care of in a way that befits the appreciation you want to show them.
