The Challenge

GODIVA's products were already a favourite corporate gift, but Shopify checkout takes one shipping address per order, leaving bulk gifting to spreadsheets, email threads and manual coordination.

The Solution

A dedicated corporate gifting storefront on Giftnote Multi-Gift, with CSV recipient upload, a choice of group or per-recipient messaging, scheduled sending and several gift carts in one programme.

MELBOURNE: GODIVA, the Belgian chocolatier that has been shorthand for a serious chocolate gift since 1926, has opened a dedicated corporate and event gifting storefront for the Australian market.

The gifting layer is Giftnote, running on over a thousand Shopify stores.

The brand

The shop is headed Gift with Godiva, with a promise that needs no elaboration: "Impress with world-class Belgian chocolate and gift boxes by Godiva." For a brand whose entire equity is recognition, that's the whole pitch.

What is in the corporate catalogue

The range is priced for real corporate volume rather than flagship retail. The 72% Dark Chocolate Carrés Gift Box, 16 pieces at 80g, sits at $31.90, with the Classic Carrés Collection Gift Box at $59.90 and an all-dark collection alongside it.

That spread covers a whole-team send and a senior client gift from the same catalogue.

Gifts in the shop right now include:

72% Dark Chocolate Carrés Gift Box, 16 Pieces, 80g: $31.90
Classic Carrés Collection Gift Box, 36 Pieces, 185g: $59.90
All Dark Chocolate Carrés Collection Gift Box, 36 Pieces, 185g: $59.90
Milk Chocolate Carrés Gift Box, 16 Pieces, 85g: $31.90
Assorted Chocolate Carrés Collection, 16 Pieces, 84g: $31.90
Assorted Chocolate Biscuits Box, 20 Pieces, 155g: $54.90
Assorted Chocolate Biscuits Box, 32 Pieces, 245g: $79.90
Dark Chocolate G Cube, 5 Pieces, 37g: $11.90

Why the domain matters

The programme runs at corporategifts.godiva.com.au, GODIVA's own subdomain, rather than on a shared marketplace. A corporate buyer never leaves the brand between choosing a gift and paying for it.

For a company that has spent a century making the box itself part of the gift, that consistency isn't a detail.

How the gifting works

GODIVA runs the programme on its own domain at corporategifts.godiva.com.au, running on Giftnote Multi-Gift.

Gifts chosen, the buyer moves to Recipients & Gift Messages: add people one by one, or upload the whole list as a CSV. Then come two questions most gifting tools never ask: what type of message? (one message for the whole list, a different note per recipient, or none at all) and

when to send?, which separates the moment the message lands from the moment the order was paid for.

The Add another cart? step is the one people miss. One programme can run several gift bundles at once, so the senior client list and the whole-team send needn't be two exercises.

Adding recipients and choosing the message type

What the programme does

One order to as many recipients as the list holds
Recipients added individually or uploaded by CSV
A group message, a different note per recipient, or none at all
A send date chosen by the buyer, not dictated by the order date
Several gift carts running inside one programme

What it unlocks for the brand

Most acquisition channels fight for attention. A corporate gift arrives with it already granted, hundreds of times over from one order.

The recipient gets a message, not a tracking number, and enters Klaviyo as a gift recipient rather than an anonymous address.

Giftnote POV

A corporate gift is the only marketing you send that someone opens on purpose. The brands doing it properly treat the recipient as a customer they have just acquired, because that's exactly what they are.

Frequently asked questions

Does GODIVA do corporate gifting?

Yes. GODIVA takes corporate and bulk gift orders through its corporate gift shop, sending to as many recipients as the list holds from a single order.

Can you send GODIVA gifts to many addresses in one order?

Yes. The shop handles the split, the address validation and the per-recipient messaging from a single order.

Can you write a different gift message for each recipient?

Yes. You choose once, up front: a single group message, individual messages per recipient, or no message.

Can you choose when the gift message is sent?

Yes. Order now, send later. The buyer sets the date.

How does a Shopify brand send one order to many addresses?

Shopify checkout takes one shipping address per order. Splitting an order across a recipient list, validating every address and attaching a separate message to each needs an app built for it. GODIVA does this with Giftnote Multi-Gift.

What software powers GODIVA's corporate gifting?

Giftnote Multi-Gift: the multi-recipient storefront, CSV recipient upload, per-recipient messaging and scheduled sending, on Shopify.
