Tinware Direct launches Your Gift Basket
Your Gift Basket offered a similar service to Tinware Direct's stock tins, with the products sold in wholesale quantities to businesses or as individual baskets or gift packs direct to the consumer.

The new stock tins were available to purchase in carton quantities opening up further opportunities to SME’s who couldn’t meet the minimum order quantities for a bespoke tin, but still wanted the USP benefits of metal packaging.

Your Gift Basket separated its B2B and B2C operations resulting in the launch of a new brand called Millbarn Packaging.
