Our client, a prominent Japanese news organization, sought a practical yet thoughtful gift for their annual year-end party.
With a clear budget in mind, they wanted something that would genuinely resonate with the unique work characteristics of journalism professionals and demonstrate the company's care for its employees.
After thoroughly understanding the work characteristics of the news industry, we identified several key needs:
Frequent Fieldwork & Business Travel:
Journalists regularly conduct on-site interviews and reporting, working in constantly changing locations and requiring highly portable, practical products.
Japanese Tea Culture:
Japan has a strong tea-drinking culture, with hot beverages playing an important role in daily life.
Vending Machine Culture:
While Japan's retail market is highly developed, cold drink vending machines are predominant.
Winter Year-End Parties:
These gatherings typically occur during cold winter months, making winter-appropriate items especially appreciated.
Convenience Paradox:
Despite easy access to hot drinks at convenience stores, obtaining hot water remains challenging during outdoor work or remote interview locations.
Based on these insights, we recommended a self-heating travel cup as the ideal year-end gift.
This product enables employees to enjoy hot water anywhere, anytime—as long as there's an electrical outlet—whether for brewing tea, coffee, or instant meals.
Product Features
100-240V Universal Voltage: Through product redesign, this self-heating cup features adaptive voltage technology,
making it suitable not only for domestic use in Japan but also for international travel—perfectly addressing journalists' potential overseas assignment needs
Portable Design: Lightweight and easy to carry for field personnel
Rapid Heating: Provides hot water quickly, improving work efficiency
Safety & Reliability: Equipped with multiple safety protection mechanisms for worry-free use
After confirming the product, we worked closely with the client on packaging design:
(1)Elegant Brand Design: Minimalist, refined packaging style incorporating the client's corporate elements to reflect professionalism.
(2)Easy Retrieval: User-friendly packaging structure for convenient pickup and transport at the year-end party.
(3)Complimentary Greeting Card: Each package included a thoughtfully designed card with messages of gratitude and best wishes from the company,
adding warmth and a human touch to the gift.
After product delivery, the client was highly satisfied with the overall project execution. More importantly, according to subsequent employee surveys:
High Satisfaction: Most employees indicated this was the most appreciated company gift they had ever received.
Practical Value: Employees frequently used the mug in their actual work, genuinely solving the hot water challenge during fieldwork.
Emotional Value: Employees widely felt the company paid sufficient attention to their work environment, and the gift conveyed warmth and care from the organization.
Enhanced Brand Image: This year-end gift initiative effectively strengthened employees' sense of belonging and loyalty to the company.
This case fully demonstrates a user-needs-centered product selection philosophy.
Rather than simply recommending popular market products or items with the highest profit margins within budget, we deeply understood the client's industry characteristics, employee work scenarios, and actual pain points, ultimately providing a practical and thoughtful solution.
This seemingly simple self-heating mug, through universal voltage design, elegant custom packaging, and precise understanding of usage scenarios, successfully transformed a corporate gift into an invaluable work companion for employees and a powerful vehicle for corporate culture and employee care.
This is exactly what we strive for—making every gift carry warmth, and every customization convey care.
