Gift boxes that support local businesses.
—
The Melbourne Box curates small, affordable gift boxes full of quality, locally-sourced products. Launched in lockdown, we were proud to help over 30 small businesses find a new avenue to customers through the challenging times of 2020, and are excited to be continuing the mission!
We hand-pick our suppliers from some of the coolest local businesses in town. It’s kind of like going to the market and discovering a bunch of great boutiques… only we’ve done the leg work for you!
What’s in the box.
Each of our standard boxes contain five products; one from each of the five categories below. When you purchase a box you don’t choose the specific products (but you can chose your drink of choice!) and you can see a list of the suppliers we’re currently working with here.

Our story.
—
The COVID-19 pandemic impacted everyone in different ways. The Melbourne Box owners found themselves in a position where we lost some work (which sucked), but gained some extra time and perspective on just how lucky we were compared to many others – particularly some of our favourite local small businesses. Which gave us an idea…
We wanted to do something productive with our new-found spare time that could help share the love with other local businesses. This is what I came up with.
