Things We're Grateful for at Montana Gift Corral

Things We're Grateful for at Montana Gift Corral

For over 30 years, we’ve had the privilege of calling Bozeman our home. And as we enter this season of gratitude, we can’t help but reflect on the early mornings, bustling days, friendly faces, and countless memories that have carried us through three whole decades. There are truly uncountable things to be grateful for. Through every change, every bit of growth, and every new chapter, one thing has stayed beautifully constant: our hearts are full because of the people, partnerships, and community that make Montana Gift Corral what it is today.

Our Ever-Growing Team

When we first began, we were a tiny crew with big dreams. Today, that little team has blossomed into a wonderful, passionate group of folks who bring so much joy and heart into everything they do. With every new location, whether it’s the Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport, the Bozeman Walmart, Lewis & Clark Caverns State Park, or our newest home in the heart of Missoula, our team has grown right alongside us. 

Each person who joins our crew brings their own light, their own strengths, and their own genuine care for helping others find that perfect Montana treasure. Whether someone lives right here under the big sky or is traveling through for the first time, our team is always ready with a smile, a suggestion, and a shared love for this beautiful place we call home. 

Our Partnerships with Montana Vendors

We’re endlessly grateful for the incredible Montana makers who help us curate a lineup of gifts that truly reflect the heart of our state. From home decor to yummy treats, bath & body items, and so much more, we’re proud to carry over 1,000 Made in Montana products. 

These partnerships mean the world to us. They strengthen our local economy, support hardworking small businesses, and allow us to share authentic Montana craftsmanship with visitors and locals alike. If you’re a Montana maker hoping to join our lineup, we’d love to hear from you! Please send your info to newproduct@giftcorral.com. Our procurement team is always on the lookout for the next amazing local creation! 

Our Partnership with Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport

Our relationship with the Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport (BZN) has been one of the most meaningful catalysts for our growth. With several locations throughout the airport, we’ve been able to meet travelers from near and far, hearing their stories, sharing local favorites, and sending them home with a little piece of Montana. 

Partnering with the airport has also allowed us to offer more job opportunities to Bozeman locals, something we’re deeply proud of. We’re incredibly grateful for the trust the airport has placed in us, and we can’t wait to see how both the airport and Montana Gift Corral continue to grow together in the years ahead. 

Our Flagship Montana Gift Corral Location in Downtown Bozeman (Over 30 Years Strong!)

Since the very beginning, our home at 237 E Main Street has held a special place in our hearts. This historic location has been with us through thick and thin, through the bright excitement of downtown events and through the heavy moments, like the devastating downtown Bozeman explosion in 2009 that tragically claimed the life of Tara Reistad Bowman. We’re forever grateful that our staff and building were spared, and we carry that gratitude forward every day. 

This space has watched us evolve and expand, and it continues to be the perfect place to showcase the incredible Montana-made goods that fill our shelves. It’s more than just a store; it’s a piece of our story!

Our Customers Who Have Always Supported Us Year After Year

At the heart of it all is you. Our community, our customers, our friends. Your support has carried us through every season. You’ve visited us year after year, shared our products with loved ones, attended our events, and filled our days with conversation, laughter, and connection. You’ve lifted us up with kind words, passed along recommendations to friends, and even shared your stories with us at the counter!

You are the reason we get to do what we love, and we feel that gratitude deeply.

As we reflect on where we’ve been and look forward to where we’re going, our hearts are full. Montana Gift Corral has grown in ways we could only dream of thirty years ago, and every step of the journey has been shaped by the incredible people around us.

Thank you for shopping with us, partnering with us, working with us, cheering for us, and sharing Montana’s magic alongside us!
