1. Petal & Post

Website:https://petalandpost.co.za/

Address: 44 Stanley Avenue, Braamfontein Werf

Contact: 010 502 1898

Hours: Tuesday-Friday 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM | Saturday 9:00 AM – 2:00 PM | Sunday 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM 

If you need a quick, beautiful floral surprise sent out today, Petal & Post has you covered. They provide same-day gift and farm-fresh posy delivery across Johannesburg for orders placed by 3 PM using their own climate-controlled delivery fleet.

Plus, you can easily add glass vases, personalised handwritten cards, or curated local gift items to round out your present.

When we tried their service, we ordered a posy set and were impressed that the blooms arrived remarkably fresh and vibrant. It’s no surprise, since they source flowers straight from local farms, so the stems arrive in bud and last longer. 

On the downside, delivery costs fluctuate between R39 and R125 depending on the destination suburb, which is quite a range.

Customer Reviews

A cheery delivery and a lovely surprise upgrade 

From the easy-to-navigate website to excellent communication and the delivery by a cheery young lady this was a great experience and service.  The flowers looked as good irl as the web photos and I noticed that one of the extra gifts I had ordered was swapped out (no stock?) for THREE other and equally lovely pieces that made for an even more generous presentation.  Thank you – I will definitely be back.

Smooth ordering and great communication every step of the way 

I had a wonderful experience ordering flowers and a gift hamper for a friend. The entire process was simple and straightforward from start to finish. The chatbot was very helpful and made communication quick and easy, while the regular updates throughout the order process gave me confidence that everything was on track. Being kept informed at every step was greatly appreciated. Excellent service and I would happily use them again and recommend them to others.

2. Swiss Lady Chocolates & Flowers

Website:http://www.chocolategifts.co.za/

Address: Quality House, Unit L4B, 33 St Christopher Road, St Andrews

Contact: 011 453 0948

Hours: Monday-Thursday 7:30 AM – 3:30 PM | Friday 7:30 AM – 3:00 PM

Established in 1987, Swiss Lady Chocolates & Flowers is a long-standing favourite for customisable gift baskets. They assemble fully customisable gift hampers and chocolates made directly to order rather than shipping pre-packed boxes.

You even get to select every item in the hamper, including handmade chocolates, fudge, Turkish delight, cupcakes, and fresh flowers.

Plus, they cater to personal celebrations and large corporate events, while holding Level 4 Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE)  compliance for corporate clients. Their team even offers great options if you’re searching for wedding gift ideas.

However, their operating schedule is fairly short, so ordering requires careful planning. They shut down by 3:30 PM on weekdays (3:00 PM on Fridays) and remain closed on weekends.

Customer Reviews

Perfect overseas gift delivery that made mom smile 

I ordered a gift hamper for my mother in law. Being overseas, I had to trust that I was ordering the right hamper for her and that it would be delivered on time. The entire process went very smooth, delivery was on time, and according to my mother in law the hamper looked beautiful and was full of delicious treats. Thank you very much for your excellent service!

Spot-on customer service and on-time delivery

The service I had received from the staff was excellent and the customer service was on point. The lady(Nathi) I spoke to listened to what I requested and she delivered exactly what I needed. The delivery of the parcel was on time and there was no delay. I’m very impressed with their work. They are very reliable and trust worthy. This is the company I can recommend to friends and family even my colleagues. Well done, guys!

3. Selwyn Segal Gift Centre

Website:https://www.selwynsegalgifts.co.za/

Address: 113 George Avenue, Sandringham

Contact: 011 640 6413

Hours: Monday-Thursday 8:30 AM – 4:00 PM | Friday 8:30 AM – 2:00 PM

Selwyn Segal Gift Centre operates as a volunteer-run charitable service, where 100% of their profits support the residents of the Selwyn Segal Centre. This way, you send a gift while ensuring that your money goes to a worthy cause.

Their services are equally impressive, where they assemble custom, individually made gift packages so you don’t have to worry about sending duplicate items.

As a cherry on top, you can phone them for a quick consultation to tailor gifts to your specific budget and occasion.

We also appreciate their same-day delivery in Johannesburg, which is perfect for last-minute ideas.

However, they have an early cut-off of 12:00 PM on Fridays. This results in a Monday delivery date.

4. Standard Gifts

Website:http://www.standardgifts.co.za/

Address: 67 Barney Simon Road, Newtown

Contact: 011 838 0090

Hours: Monday-Thursday 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM (Closed 1:00 PM – 1:35 PM) | Friday 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM (Closed 12:00 PM – 2:00 PM) | Saturday 9:00 AM – 2:00 PM

Standard Gifts is a family-owned business that was established in 1974. Their years in the business now give them a deep inventory and wholesale capabilities.

In particular, they offer over 2,000 kitchenware, cookware, and tableware items for retail and wholesale customers. Plus, they supply durable glassware and high-end table settings that work well for housewarmings or family milestones.

Buyers can even order foldable gift boxes, sweet sets, and bulk merchandise for larger group gifting.

On top of that, they handle nationwide dispatch across South Africa for all orders, making them even more accessible.

The main catch is their delivery speed. Shipping takes two to three working days within Gauteng, with no same-day options.

5. LuluLocal

Website:https://www.lululocal.co.za/

Address: 14 7th Ave, Parktown North

Contact: 072 758 4961

Hours: Monday-Friday 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM 

One of our favourites, LuluLocal, is a women-owned business that specialises in bespoke gift boxes filled with curated items. The best part is these products are sourced directly from South African artisans and small vendors.

They handle both small personal milestone gifts and large-scale bespoke corporate orders while promoting ethical production. Their inventory is fantastic, from coffee to self-care items.

We also like their online “Gift Box Builder,” which lets you handpick unique crafts, snacks, and bath products to build a truly personalised package.

To boot, flat-rate delivery is available across Gauteng at R125 and R160 for the rest of South Africa.

The downside is that shipping is strictly limited to weekdays, so weekend or holiday dispatches are completely off the table. Deliveries to outlying areas can also take up to five working days.

Customer Reviews

Stunning gift box with top-notch communication

Consistent quality and reliable delivery every time

I’ve ordered both birthday and Mother’s Day gifts from this store and every single time my order arrived on time and in excellent condition. The items always look exactly like the pictures online, which I really appreciate.

The quality of the gifts and the reliable delivery have been consistently impressive, so I’ll definitely keep ordering from them and highly recommend their service to others.
