Mayor of Dartford Delighted by Visit to Local Business: The Happiness Box

by | May 18, 2024 | Dartford Business

In the heart of Dartford, a beacon of joy shines bright: The Happiness Box. Since its inception in 2020, this local business has been on a mission to spread happiness far and wide, one thoughtful gift at a time. What began as a simple idea during lockdown has blossomed into a global phenomenon, touching hearts and bringing smiles to faces across the globe.

Founded with the goal of sending love to loved ones during challenging times, The Happiness Box started by offering letterbox gifts that could easily slide into homes and hearts. From decadent chocolates to heartfelt trinkets, each box was curated with care, making every delivery a moment of pure joy.

Today, The Happiness Box has expanded its reach beyond borders, sending gifts to distant corners of the world. But their commitment to spreading happiness extends closer to home as well. Introducing their latest venture: the “Happiness Honesty Boxes.”

These innovative boxes, designed for local businesses in Dartford and its surrounding areas, offer a delightful surprise to anyone who opens them. Filled with an assortment of goodies, each box embodies the spirit of honesty and goodwill, reflecting The Happiness Box’s unwavering dedication to making a difference in their community.

Recently, The Happiness Box had the honour of hosting the Mayor of Dartford and Councillor Avtar Sandhu MBE, the Lead Member for Business, who is dedicated to supporting local businesses in the borough of Dartford, at their offices. Welcoming them with open arms, the team showcased their letterbox gifts and honesty boxes, leaving the esteemed guests impressed and delighted.

Local professional photographer Pete Bresser from Bresser Photography captured the occasion, immortalising the moment in stunning photographs that captured the warmth and excitement of the visit.

Speaking about the visit, the Mayor expressed his admiration for The Happiness Box’s commitment to spreading joy and positivity. “It’s truly heartwarming to see a local business making such a positive impact, both locally and globally,” he remarked.

In addition to their mission of spreading happiness, The Happiness Box is proud to support a local charity, “We Are Beams,” further demonstrating their commitment to making a difference in the community.

For those looking to partake in the happiness revolution, ordering from The Happiness Box is as easy as a few clicks away. Simply visit their website at www.thehappinessbox.co.uk and let the joyous journey begin.

With their strapline “Happiness Delivered,” The Happiness Box continues to spread smiles one box at a time, proving that even in the busiest of cities, happiness is always within reach.
