This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
reliable
secondary
strictly independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Doesn't appear to explain what kind of gifts the company actually sells. Needs to be much clearer.

Comment: Whatever an emotional gift may be depends upon way too many subjective factors. The draft is also not well written, too promotional, and based on underwhelming sources. It even cites a Linkedin profile… --Johannes (Talk) (Contribs) (Articles) 06:12, 15 March 2025 (UTC)
