Dunno about the presents, but that old white man character was popularized by coca cola in the 1930s.
Not really, it’s more the red costume that was! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Father_Christmas
At least internationally, the Coke advertising campaigns definitely had a big impact. In Germany, for example, there was the “Christkind”, who was usually depicted as a little girl bringing presents to children. Today, the “Christkind” has largely been replaced by the Coke Santa Claus, although this character also resembles St. Nicholas, who is often depicted with a white beard and a (red) bishop’s outfit.
