INTRODUCING GBCP

The Great British Card Partnership is a planning and brokerage specialist. We provide the ideal greeting card solution for independent high street retailers, garden centres and Post Offices by offering the very best choice of greeting cards from 25 leading UK publishers.


Our product catalogue offers everything, from contemporary to traditional, humour to photographic, by sourcing from in-house and publishing partners; providing a precise blend of cards with a suitable balance of captions, designs and styles.

WHAT IS BROKERAGE?

Brokerage is a simple way for your store to have the best curated collection of cards from top publishers for your customers, all through one trusted partner.

 

Think of it like a personal shopper. By sourcing from one specialist supplier who manages your space, you ensure the perfect balance of card styles, price points and ranges across relationships, occasions and open. This creates a cohesive, well-balanced display that looks great in store. Plus, by analysing your sales performance, we can continually fine-tune the selection to maximise results.

“The whole process from start to finish was seamless, as always. The main reason for choosing them [GBCP] was down to their excellent customer service and focus on the business to be successful going forward. Our sales have rocketed and continue to grow.
