Basket-related equipment
The essential equipment required to assemble gift baskets is actually minimal. As your business grows, you may opt for more elaborate, sophisticated gadgets. But you can get started with just a work table (about 3 feet by 8 feet), heavy-duty scissors, a 120-inch measuring tape (to measure cellophane), tape dispensers with heavy bases, staplers and a glue gun. If more than one person will be assembling baskets at the same time, you'll need separate workstations, each equipped with the essentials.
