Pekata raises €1.3 million to expand its personalised corporate gifts
Pekata lets companies personalise gifts for employees, including the traditional holiday hamper.
The Spanish company was founded by Roger Rafel, Sergio Blasco and Esteban Humet after they saw that one standard hamper did not suit everyone, including vegans and people who do not drink wine.
Customers can choose gift categories, set a budget and offer a standard option for employees who do not want to customise their gift.
Pekata raised €1.3 million in loans and bank financing to support its growth, in addition to a €600,000 capital increase in October 2025.
It made €2.5 million in 2025, up 38% from the previous year, and expects revenue to more than double to €6 million this year.
Holiday hampers still bring in 99% of its revenue, although the company has added merchandise, welcome packs and gifts for clients and suppliers.
Pekata plans to expand into Portugal and Italy next year, after serving more than 200 companies and sending 35,000 hampers in its 2025 season.

What people are saying
We have enormous demand because our service avoids complaints from employees when, for example, they do not like wine or are vegan and do not eat ham.
We solve the problems that come with offering everyone the same hamper.
