    The person behind the gift guides at Groovy Guy Gifts.

    NY NOWEvery year

    Chris Bajda is the founder of Groovy Guy Gifts and the person behind its gift guides. He started the company in 2013 with a simple idea: a gift means more when it is made for one person and no one else.

    Chris has spent more than 15 years finding and designing personalized gifts that people actually keep. He attends the NY NOW trade show in New York City every year to stay ahead of what is new in gifting and personalization, and he brings that into every guide and product on the site.

    His approach is the opposite of grabbing something off the shelf. A name, a date, an inside joke, or a favorite photo turns an ordinary object into something that shows real thought. That is the whole point of what Groovy Guy Gifts makes.

    Today the shop is family owned and has earned more than 17,000 reviews from people who wanted a gift with a story behind it. When Chris recommends a product in one of these guides, it is because he would be glad to give it to his own family.

    A gift means more when it is made for one person and no one else.

    How Chris chooses a gift

    Made for one person

    Personalization is the whole point, not an add-on at checkout.

    Chosen, not grabbed

    Every pick earns its place in a guide. No filler, no padding.

    Gifts they keep

    The goal is something they hold onto, not something used once.
