Working moms Zabrina Ogunlana and Melissa Livingston have been best friends for what feels like forever. The women met while both were working at Publix Super Market headquarters in Lakeland, Florida; Zabrina as a graphic designer and Melissa as a marketing brand manager.

They were prompted to start Goodie Tins after they saw a void in the market. As a designer Zabrina
simply wasn't satisfied with the cookie-cutter aesthetics of traditional gift baskets. Same brown
wicker basket. Same brightly colored cellophane wrapping.

And as both women were busy moms, neither had the time to hunt and peck for the perfect gifts
for the countless baby showers, weddings, and birthday parties, you name it, they always seemed
to be attending.

Hence, Goodie Tins was born.

"We thought that so much could be achieved with our "goodie tins".... a beautiful originally designed
item ready to gift," explained Melissa.

 

"And...it's just so much more personal," added Zabrina.

The women officially founded Goodie Tins in Florida in 2009 with the ultimate goal of adding
personality, style and a genuine sense of expressing love to those who receive one of their
beautiful and customized tins.

a very wonderful patient husband, and...managing all creative aspects of Goodie Tins.
