Emilola Priscilla Odutola, a passionate entrepreneur with a B.A. in English, has turned her love for making people happy into a thriving business. Her journey began with a simple yet profound desire to see the joy on people’s faces when they receive the perfect gift, often curated personally to meet their preferences. This passion led to the establishment of Valentines Gift Ng on January 28th, 2021, a brand dedicated to creating unique, personalized, and ethically sourced gifts that delight and surprise.
“I’ve always had a thing for making people happy, especially when it comes as a surprise,” Emilola shares. Her journey into the world of gift curation was born out of a struggle to find the perfect gifts that met her high standards. Frustrated with not being able to find all the desired items in a single gift box, she began curating them herself. Her talent did not go unnoticed; friends and family consistently sought her advice for gift ideas, especially around Valentine’s Day. Recognizing the demand and her own passion, Emilola launched Valentines Gift Ng.
Valentines Gift Ng aims to be the leading gift curating brand in Nigeria and beyond. The company’s goals are clear: to provide clients with unique and personalized gift experiences, to ensure sustainable and ethical sourcing of gifts, and to remain innovative and trend-setting in the gift curating niche. Emilola envisions a brand that not only meets but exceeds expectations, creating memorable experiences through exceptional customer service and attention to detail.
Like many entrepreneurs, Emilola faced her fair share of challenges. Early on, she struggled to find a reliable logistics company to ensure timely and safe delivery of her curated gifts. Understanding the importance of this final step, she took matters into her own hands and established her own logistics business, ensuring seamless deliveries.
Another challenge was attempting to cater to everyone, which often led to compromising on quality. Emilola soon realized the importance of maintaining the brand’s high standards and now focuses on delivering value to clients who appreciate the quality and uniqueness of her offerings.
Since its inception, Valentines Gift Ng has achieved several significant milestones. The brand boasts a remarkable customer satisfaction rate of over 95%, demonstrating the success of its commitment to exceptional customer service. Additionally, the company has introduced trend-setting gift ideas such as Spotify scan frames and video scan frames, continuously pushing the boundaries of creativity. Notable collaborations with prominent companies like OSPS, Tangerine Africa, and DAYSON LIMITED further showcase the brand’s credibility and appeal.
Emilola enjoys watching movies, sleeping, and traveling to new countries, hobbies that often inspire her innovative ideas. With a vision to be the number one gift curating brand in Nigeria and beyond, Valentines Gift Ng continues to set trends and raise the bar in the gift industry.
