Leather employee welcome kits — branded onboarding gifts in bulk
Employee welcome & onboarding kits
We manufacture and brand leather onboarding kits in our own Kanpur facility — journal covers, wallets, cardholders and complete boxed sets — then ship them to your offices, or straight to each new hire, across the UK, Europe, Australia and the United States. From 50 kits.
The Hide Leather is a leather goods manufacturer in Kanpur, India. We produce branded employee welcome kits in bulk — leather journal covers, wallets, cardholders, keyrings, luggage tags, laptop sleeves and boxed multi-piece sets — and apply your branding in the same building we make them in. You tell us the headcount, the budget per head and the start date; we build the kit, brand it, and ship it.
Why the first kit matters
Onboarding is the gift budget that never stops
Hiring runs all year, so a welcome kit is continuous spend, not a Q4 event — and a leather piece with a discreet logo is the kind people keep on the desk instead of in the bin.
Build the kit to the role
Four kits, one factory, your brand on all of them
Mix the pieces to the seniority and the budget. Every tier is made, branded and boxed in-house.
The essentials kit
Refillable leather journal cover, slim cardholder and a keyring, branded and boxed — the standard-issue welcome for every joiner.
The lead kit
Everything in the essentials kit plus a bifold wallet in your grade of leather — a step up for team leads and long-service joiners.
The senior kit
Leather laptop sleeve, journal and wallet in a premium hide, presentation-boxed — for senior hires and board onboarding.
Ship-to-each-hire
Any kit above, boxed individually and shipped to each employee's home address — one brief, many destinations, no coordination on your side.
The pieces we make
Choose what fills the box
Journal & diary covers
Refillable leather covers that outlive the diary inside — the anchor piece of most welcome kits.
Wallets & cardholders
Bifold wallets and slim cardholders in your grade of leather, hardware and lining.
Keyrings, tags & desk pieces
Small-format leather carrying a discreet, high-perceived-value mark — the low-cost filler that lifts a kit.
Laptop sleeves & work bags
Sleeves and totes for executive onboarding and senior hires.
Complete boxed kits
Curated multi-piece sets, branded and presentation-boxed, ready to hand over on day one.
From our workshop
Representative pieces






Representative of our catalogue. Welcome kits are made to your specification, leather grade and branding.
Branding methods
Four ways to carry your logo
Blind deboss
Your logo pressed into the leather with no colour — the quietest, most premium mark.
Foil deboss
A debossed impression filled with gold, silver or a custom foil.
Heat emboss
A raised impression — tactile, durable and confident.
Laser mark
Fine, precise detail for intricate or small logos.
Each method has its own setup cost and minimum, confirmed with your quote. Send your logo in vector format.
The margin most suppliers miss
Duty-free where it counts
Made in India, these kits land at zero duty into the United Kingdom and Australia. Chinese-origin equivalents do not — and across hundreds of hires a year, that gap is real money back in the People budget.
We issue the Certificate of Origin you need to claim the preferential rate.

Questions buyers ask
Before you brief us
What is the minimum order for welcome kits?
50 kits for boxed sets, or 25 units for single items. Laptop sleeves and bags start at 15 units. There is no ceiling — we produce 5,000 to 10,000 kits inside 30 days when needed.
Can you ship a kit to each employee individually?
Yes. We box each kit separately and ship to individual home or office addresses worldwide, so a distributed or remote-first team is onboarded from a single brief on your side.
Can you match our brand colours and logo?
Yes. Send your logo in vector and we deboss, foil, emboss or laser it. We work to your leather grade, colour, hardware and lining, so the kit reads as your brand rather than ours.
How fast can you deliver for a start date?
Tell us the start date or onboarding wave and we work backwards from it. Branded kits are scheduled around your date; stock items such as belts ship in 7 working days.
Do these land duty-free in the UK and Australia?
Yes. Indian-made leather goods enter both markets at zero duty, and we provide the Certificate of Origin to claim it.
When do we see exact per-unit prices?
Starting prices are published on this page. Exact per-item pricing, with quantity breaks, is shown once your trade account is approved.
