We’re excited to partner with Zest and provide our corporate customers with a seamless and memorable gifting experience.”

With Zest's platform, Levain Bakery’s corporate customers can enjoy features such as easy-to-shop storefronts dedicated to corporate gifts, a fast multi-ship bulk address uploader, flexible gift-delivery options and the ability to schedule gift deliveries ahead of time.
