The plan in short
Launch the MOTAS Box as an alternative to traditional corporate gifts.
Show that meaningful giving can truly work in the business world.
Use the proceeds to fund educational projects in Peru.
Build a brand that proves business can be about more than profit.
The problem and our mission
The corporate gifting market is full — yet empty at the same time. Millions of packages are given each year, but rarely with true meaning. A box filled with products, often without a story — while giving should be something personal. We believe it can be different.
That a gift shouldn’t just be something you give away, but something you pass on.
MOTAS was born from that idea.
We help companies bring meaning back to giving — in a way that feels real, not obligatory.
Our mission is simple but powerful: to inspire businesses to give with meaning.
Our solution
We’re building a young brand that makes impact tangible.
Not through big words, but through small, honest steps. The MOTAS Box is our first step — a gift that’s practical, fair, and inspiring. Not made to impress, but to spark change.
With the proceeds from every MOTAS Box, we fund the MOTAS Kids Box — boxes full of school supplies and creative materials distributed to children in Peru.
This brings learning, writing, and creating together in one movement.
The art those children create becomes the inspiration for our designs here. That way, every project becomes a creative exchange between the Netherlands and Peru — and between giving and receiving.

The next steps
We know we’re still at the beginning.
Our products will improve, our identity will strengthen, and our impact will grow. In this phase, we’re focusing on:
Launching the first MOTAS Box
Building local partnerships in Peru
Carrying out the first MOTAS Kids Project
Further developing our brand identity and product line
Each step brings us closer to becoming a brand that doesn’t just sell products but shares an idea.
Our goal
We want every gift to mean something again. For companies to give not just to give, but to make a difference. For meaning, creativity, and social impact to go hand in hand.
What began as the idea of a 14-year-old student is now growing into something that can become bigger than a company. Not because we have all the answers, but because we dared to start.
MOTAS isn’t a gifting brand.
MOTAS is an idea that shows giving can be meaningful again.

MOTAS is een jong merk dat laat zien dat zakelijke geschenken meer kunnen zijn dan zakelijk alleen. Wij geloven dat geven iets in beweging kan zetten.
