AUDIENCE GUIDE
The expat pack for international staff
The expat pack eases the first weeks: practical, in English, with a taste of Budapest.
The group profile
Tourism and hospitality businesses around Lake Balaton order seasonally, typically locking stock three to four months before the summer. The relocation pack — map, notebook, bottle, welcome card — ships in an English edition.
Practical items such as a transit-card holder or adapter support everyday settling-in. Ready-stock items keep gaining ground because campaign teams increasingly work to two-week deadlines.
Products in the pack
Never start a production run before the proof is approved in writing — it is the cheapest insurance against colour and placement errors. A small Hungarian taste in the pack signals cultural welcome.
Reusable bottles and mugs anchor most ready-stock offers, decorated by screen printing or digital methods. A conference tote starts working on the spot: it carries the rest of the giveaway kit and survives the trip home.
Cost bands
Add five to ten percent volume headroom for size-curve misses — a later top-up repeats the setup fee. Packs arrive by post or to the hotel; address handling must be exact.
Spring and early-summer capacity is looser, and the identical specification can come in noticeably cheaper. Branded textiles typically run 2,500-12,000 HUF + VAT per piece, with the decoration method driving the premium.
Roll-out and logistics
Most Budapest office buildings accept goods between 8am and 5pm, and a named reception contact beats a doorbell address. The expat pack runs 10,000-18,000 HUF + VAT — above standard, still measured.
Intra-EU shipping takes 3-5 working days, beyond the EU 5-10; plan backwards from the move-in date. International consignments follow the destination's customs rules; inside the EU a tax number and the invoice usually suffice.
