Dates Box Manufacturer in Dubai UAE





A well-made date box turns a simple handful of dates into a gift people remember. Al Zaytoon Boxes designs and manufactures dates packaging in our own factory in Sajja, Sharjah, for date shops, farms, hotels, caterers and companies preparing Ramadan and Eid gifts. From budget-friendly food board boxes to VIP wooden presentation boxes, we help you choose a structure, insert and finish that suits your dates and your budget.
Dates box styles for every budget
The right dates box depends on who will receive it and how it will be used. We work across three main material levels:
Food board dates box
A practical, lighter option for retail shelves, takeaway and large giveaways. Food board boxes can be printed in full colour and finished with lamination. See our food board boxes for more detail.
Rigid grey-board dates box
A mid-range rigid box with a solid feel, ideal for a dates gift box for clients, guests and family. Rigid boxes take magnetic lids, drawer styles and fitted trays well.
MDF wooden dates box
For VIP and VVIP gifting, MDF wooden boxes give a heavier, keepsake-quality presentation. Explore our luxury wooden boxes for inspiration.

Printing and finishing for a dates gift box
Branding is where a date box becomes yours. We offer:
- Printing: 4-colour offset printing, single-colour printing and Pantone-specific printing.
- Foiling and hot stamping: matte gold, glossy gold, rose gold, black, rainbow and other foil colours.
- Embossing and debossing: raised or pressed logos, which can be combined with foil.
- Spot UV: a shiny highlight on selected areas of the design.
Learn more about artwork and finishes on our box printing page.
Ramadan dates box and seasonal gifting
Ramadan and Eid are the busiest times for dates packaging in the UAE. A Ramadan dates box often combines premium dates with chocolates, a greeting card or a small keepsake. Planning early gives you more time to approve artwork and finishes. For wider seasonal ideas, see our Ramadan gift boxes. Many clients also add chocolates in a matching chocolate box.
