Thinking of stocking greeting cards?
If you are new to the industry, we can provide you with all the information you need to get started.
First, the economic case for stocking greeting cards is high: the UK buys more greeting cards per head than any country in the world. The industry is worth £1.2 billion annually.
Second, the set-up costs needn’t be high: you don’t need fancy spinners and shelving to get you started (though if you are looking, contact us for some recommendations of suppliers). All you need is a small display stand, and as our cards fit into A5 pockets, you can start by purchasing a £6 clear plastic container from Staples!
Third, we do have a minimum order of £50 for retail cards because of the labour involved in packing the order, but as the standard retail card mark-up is 2.35, look at that as a gain of £67...
