Building the Happiness Business
The founders saw that personal choice could make a business gift feel less generic and more considerate. Leslie Lyon and Elisabeth Vezzani established Sugarwish in 2012. They began with recipient-choice candy gifting, then extended that structure to 15+ gift categories.
The company now measures the journey in gifts delivered and organizations served. Its stated totals are more than 2 million gifts delivered, more than 50,000 companies served, and 70% of the Fortune 500 included among those organizations.
