THE GREAT BRITISH CARD PARTNERSHIP
The Great British Card Partnership is your planning and brokerage specialist.
We provide the ideal solution tailored to garden centres and specialist card retailers, enabling you to save time and improve sales. Our offer is individually tailored to your business, offering the very best collection in greetings design from The Great British Card Company and a further 22 leading UK publishers. Alongside a broad and diverse range, your business will benefit from simplified buying, inventory and administration. As a specialist one stop brokerage, we take the time to ensure your total display has a unique and coordinated look across all styles, occasions and price points, carefully curated from our collection of over 4000 designs. Our sales specialists will discuss our retail development programme with you, which offers personalised fixtures and merchandising guaranteed to save you time, reduce stock holding and drive extra sales as a greetings card destination.
By regularly analysing your sales data, we’ll quickly get to know what works for you and your customer and make changes to ensure the fixture is working hard for you.
The Great British Card Partnership offers;
- A Simple Process: One specialist salesperson plus one delivery and one invoice to simplify re-ordering, thus reducing time, stock holding and administration.
- A Specialist Planning Service tailored to your store and your customers, bolstered by our expertise and our promise of excellent stock availability.
- A Complete Look to ensure you have the right balance of designs across captions, genres and price points, taking into account your full display.
We take time to produce accurate Data Analysis to review sales and trends, allowing us to adapt our offering of existing range and frequent new launches.
Great Design, Great Quality:
We stock over 4000 cards in our ever evolving range. By continually updating our offering, we ensure that all our Partnership customer displays look fresh and engaging. By having your range planned and supplied by one company, you’ll have a unique, cohesive and coordinated range tailored to you and your customer.
Innovative Retail Development:
We’ll review your space to give you the right retail solution with new card racks and point of sale designed to fit your unique requirement.
Important Environmental Solutions:
Our cards are supplied unwrapped unless they have lots of extra finishing and are all glitter-free with clear recycling information. By having one delivery, you’ll help reduce your environmental impact as well as save time.

“Absolutely delighted to move to Great British Card Partnerships for a freshen up and complete revamp of our Greeting card offering.
It has taken our sales to another level, and the brokerage system has taken the hassle out of having lots of different suppliers to deal with. Probably the easiest and best
buying decision I made in 2023,
well done GBCC!”

“Using Great British Cards as our card broker has allowed us to offer our customers the best mix of UK card publishers through one easy supply route.
The custom-made displays and inclusive merchandising service allows us to free up staff members to focus on other important parts of our business.”

Buyer, Poplars Garden Centre Toddington
“As part of ongoing improvements in-store, having a comprehensive offer of greeting cards was key to growing our card sales. Choosing Great British Cards as our sole supplier was made easy as they were able to supply many card publishers in one expertly planned display. Knowing that the support and back up is always there, allows us to concentrate on the day-to-day running of our busy Post Office.”
