The multi-country campaign without headaches.

Three hundred boxes. Fifteen countries. One brief. Individual tracking per recipient. One consolidated invoice. For European HR and Ops teams who have tried the alternative.

You are running a Christmas campaign for 300 employees across 15 EU countries. You have two options.

Option one: source locally in each market. That is 15 suppliers, 15 invoicing currencies, 15 compliance checks, 15 different boxes your team has never tasted. Ops disappears for three weeks.

Option two: one brief, one supplier, 300 boxes, individual tracking, consolidated invoice. You spend 90 minutes of your time over six weeks. The boxes arrive. You approve one invoice. Done.

Why multi-country campaigns usually fail

The predictable failure modes of a distributed gifting campaign are consistent across European companies: local sourcing proliferates suppliers beyond Ops's capacity to manage; address data quality collapses because HR systems were never built to export gifting-ready addresses; carrier exceptions in 5-8% of shipments consume disproportionate post-campaign time; and the invoicing complexity (multi-currency, multi-VAT, multi-entity) creates downstream accounting work that nobody costed into the original budget.

The result: a campaign that was supposed to make employees feel cared for ends up as a six-week Ops headache, delivered late to a third of recipients.

The consolidation playbook

  1. Single supplier, single country of origin. Everything ships from Spain. No per-country sourcing, no inventory management on your side.
  2. Single brief. One conversation defines box tier, branding level, volume and timeline. No per-market customisation unless explicitly required.
  3. Single spreadsheet for addresses. Your HRIS or CRM exports to CSV; we validate within 48 hours; we flag exceptions back to you as a single list.
  4. Individual tracking per recipient. Each box gets a tracking code linked to the recipient's name in our system. We handle delivery notifications direct to each person, so you are not flooded with 300 email forwards.
  5. Consolidated invoice. One invoice from TENAS PARTNERS SL in EUR. No per-country VAT gymnastics since shipments are intra-community.

The operational calendar (Christmas-scale campaign)

For non-Christmas campaigns the timeline can compress to 4-5 weeks for volumes under 500 boxes.
