Buying gifts online often leads to a lot of questions - Where is your store based? How long will my order take to arrive? Can I return it if it’s not right?
Congratulations aims to take the stress out of gifts online. We are based right here in New Zealand, ship your goods as soon as possible, and we welcome you to reach out if something isn’t right with your order.
Of course, this is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to questions. Below we try to cover off everything we find our customers asking. If you can’t find the answer you’re looking for, please reach out.
Is your store sustainable?
We are committed to minimising our impact on the environment and always looking for ways to improve our sustainability practices.
We are conscious of the need to ensure your items arrive on your doorstep free from damage but at the same time uphold our commitment to environmental and social responsibility.
We focus on reducing our waste by reusing any soft plastic packaging received from our suppliers as void packaging in our goods dispatch and using recyclable and reusable products in our signature gift wrapping.
Our products and packaging are sourced in bulk from New Zealand suppliers as much as possible to help reduce carbon emissions and to support fellow New Zealand businesses.
We handpick every item in our store with longevity, quality, and social responsibility in mind, from our network of New Zealand based distributors who share our values.
