The Mid-Autumn Festival has always been closely tied to reunion and remembrance. Families gather, friends meet, and gifts of mooncakes, tea, or fruit are exchanged—not only as a symbol of togetherness, but also as a heartfelt way to share blessings and care. Over time, Mid-Autumn gifting has gone beyond family circles to become an important part of business etiquette. A thoughtfully chosen mooncake gift box conveys festive greetings while also showing respect and sincerity to partners.
