Wir lieben das Bumerang bauen und natürlich das Bumerang Werfen. Dieser wunderschöne Sport begleitet uns schon seit vielen Jahren. Mit unserem Vater-Sohn-Projekt wollen wir diese Leidenschaft auch an dich weitergeben und viele von dem tollen Bumerang Sport begeistern. Wichtig ist uns dabei, fair gegenüber der Natur zu sein und fair zu produzieren. So verwenden wir ausschließlich nachhaltig hergestelltes Bumerang Holz und fertigen nicht billig im Ausland, sondern per Hand in Deutschland.

The last few days of a valued employee's workday are often a mix of excitement about a new challenge and sadness at seeing someone who was part of the team leave. To make the farewell a memorable one, farewell gifts are a wonderful way to express appreciation and gratitude. There's a wealth of creative and personal ideas here – from small tokens of appreciation to unusual gift ideas like a boomerang!

This article offers plenty of inspiration for farewell gifts for employees that are both personal and original. After all, a farewell gift should not only mark the end of the collaboration but also create a lasting memory.


Why a farewell gift for employees is important

A farewell gift is a gesture that shows: "We appreciated your work and dedication." Whether it's a colleague, supervisor, or team member – every farewell also brings with it the desire to leave a small memento of the time spent together. A thoughtful farewell gift reinforces the positive feelings surrounding the departure and ensures that the person leaving is remembered fondly.

The best ideas for a farewell gift for employees

  • Personalized notebooks or pens
    A personalized notebook or pen with an engraved name shows appreciation and is also practical. These gifts might even accompany the employee to their next job and remind them of their time with the team.
  1. A box full of memories
    Collect photos, notes, and funny anecdotes together with your colleagues. A lovingly compiled memory box is a farewell gift that shows the employee how valuable their time and contributions were.
  2. A special experience
    How about a voucher for an experience the employee particularly appreciates? A day at a climbing park, a wine tasting, or a workshop – experiences often create lasting memories and are a great way to end the chapter on a positive note.
  3. A slightly different boomerang
    Anyone looking for an original gift idea that's not only fun but also symbolizes a return might consider a boomerang. A boomerang is not only a cool and unusual gift, but it also symbolizes the idea that the employee is always welcome to come back – just like a boomerang that returns when thrown. At jfbumerang.de, there's a wide selection of different boomerangs that are perfect as farewell gifts for employees. You can also choose from various colors and designs to personalize the boomerang.
  4. Plant for the new office
    Plants are always a good choice. They symbolize growth and new beginnings. A small cactus or an easy-care houseplant is a nice reminder of the team and also brings a touch of nature to the new workplace.
  5. Culinary gifts
    A basket full of treats the employee enjoys, or a gift certificate for their favorite restaurant – if you want to show your appreciation through food, a culinary farewell gift is always a good choice. You could add a personal touch by writing down each colleague's favorite meal, making the box even more special.
  6. High-quality thermos flask or coffee mug
    A personalized thermos or coffee mug makes a useful everyday gift. The employee can use it daily and will always be reminded of the time spent together.
  7. Travel or fitness voucher
    Is your colleague a travel or fitness enthusiast? Then a voucher for a fitness class, a yoga session, or even a small contribution towards their next trip could be the perfect farewell gift. It shows that you've considered their interests and want to give them something for the future.
  8. An inspiring book
    Books are not only a great way to further one's education, but can also provide motivation and inspiration. A book on a topic that an employee finds particularly interesting is a lovely sign of appreciation.
  9. Beautiful card with personal messages
    Sometimes it's the little things that matter most. A card where all colleagues leave a personal message can be just as touching a keepsake. If you like, you can even design it yourself and add little symbols and pictures that reflect the time you spent together.

What really matters when choosing a farewell gift

The best farewell gift isn't necessarily the most expensive, but rather the one that shows thoughtfulness. A well-chosen gift can remind the employee of their time on the team and show them they're always welcome. Creative and unusual ideas, like a boomerang or a memory box, make a farewell gift especially meaningful.

So, the next time your team says goodbye: put a little creativity and heart into the gift, and the farewell is guaranteed to be remembered fondly!
