Bodega 38 A Profitable, Purpose-Driven Gifting Brand with Massive Growth Potential

Bodega 38 is a Denver-based corporate gifting company that curates high-quality, locally sourced gift boxes for real estate agents, multifamily property managers, and businesses looking to create lasting client impressions. With strong year-over-year growth and a highly engaged, loyal customer base, Bodega 38 is primed for expansion, whether locally or nationally.

I launched this business when my son was just 6 months old. He’s now four, and as much as I’ve loved building Bodega 38, I no longer have the time to scale it the way it deserves. The systems, branding, and customer relationships are in place, what’s needed now is someone with time and passion to take it to the next level.

Key Highlights
45% average profit margin per box
Proven customer base: 50+ real estate agents, multifamily managers, and local businesses
“Set it and forget it” logistics model creates repeat business with minimal client involvement
Premium brand with strong identity and social proof
Easy-to-use supplier network and repeatable operations
Built-in growth opportunity in new verticals (HR, hospitality, event gifting) and geographies

How the Business Works
Bodega 38 curates thoughtful gift boxes filled with locally made products (e.g., candles, snacks, coffee, home goods). Clients typically purchase boxes to celebrate new home closings, resident move-ins, client anniversaries, and other key milestones. Boxes are shipped directly to recipients, with optional branding and personal notes.
Revenue is generated on a per-box basis. Each box is sold at a premium, averaging $75–$100, with an average 45% profit margin. Orders are primarily bulk and recurring, reducing marketing overhead and increasing lifetime customer value.
