Hong Kong Father's Celebrated for 2nd Time Amidst COVID Lockdowns

    HONG KONG, June 16, 2021 /24-7PressRelease/ -- As in many countries around the world, restrictions in Hong Kong are easing up as citizens become fully vaccinated against COVID19. After having a COVID variant scare during Mother's Day that postponed the relaxation of restrictions, Father's Day promises a taste of more freedoms to come.

Hong Kong routinely celebrates Father's Day with the US on the 3rd weekend of June. While families might have splurged on big gatherings or short trips abroad in the past, all have gotten into the habit of enjoying smaller groups or virtual parties. Staycations in the city's local luxury hotels and tourist spots are popular as well as small dinners out in regulation-compliant restaurants.

To decide how many of the family can dine together is determined by the mathematics of how many of the guests and restaurant staff are fully vaccinated. The LeaveHomeSafe app is used to prove vaccination status which allows diners in a "vaccine-bubble" to dine in larger groups and later.

As retail outlets open up, families are once again able to go shopping together making mini-shopping sprees a nice option for the special weekend. Stores are making the most of the relaxed public gathering restrictions and offering sales, perks, and special products to best meet the needs of families looking to splurge on some retail therapy.

Hong Kongers were already ahead of western counterparts when it came to online shopping, food delivery, and other online services. During the pandemic, this usage increased even more. Gift boutiques and florists worked hard to meet the demand while producing new hampers, bouquets, and gift items to please everyone. In fact, leading publications ranked gifting hampers in the top 5 things to do for Father's Day.

In this regard, Give Gift Boutique has played no small role, relying heavily on an international team of designers and buyers to create fantastic new hampers and gift packages. Of course, Gift Gift has new hampers for Father's Day available for delivery throughout the island, even delivering to hotels and restaurants.

Give Gift Boutique is a leading Hong Kong flower delivery service and florist and gift shop serving corporate clients and individuals. Relying on the expertise of ex-pat florists from the Netherlands and Toronto, Give Gift delivers top-quality gifts, hampers, and bouquets keeping up with the latest European and Japanese designs.
