The problem

Gift shops don’t sell like other stores. One customer sends baskets to five people, each with a card and a must-arrive date. The product is perishable. Corporate buyers want accounts and invoices. And the phone still rings all day.

General store builders cover that with a stack of add-on apps that don’t talk to each other — and the owner ends up as the IT department.

The answer

GiftBench is one system built around how a gift shop actually works: the order, the packing bench, the delivery calendar and the phone.

We set it up, host it, keep it updated and support it. You sell baskets.
