For 100 years, Hallmark Cards has helped people connect with one another and give voice to their feelings.

We’re best known for greeting cards, but our products include paper party supplies, gifts and wrapping paper, picture frames, albums and scrapbooks, e-cards – and even a cable television channel.

Based in Kansas City in the United States, we’re family-owned with third-generation family leadership taking us into the 21st century.

Hallmark International is based in Bradford and produces greeting cards and gift wrap in more than 30 languages.

We are one of the Bradford district’s largest employers with around 2,000 people, and have made some substantial investment in the latest technology to ensure our range of 15,000 products and services is first-class.

This included a £12 million distribution centre next to our printing works at Dawson Lane, Dudley Hill, which handles 30,000 cards every hour for a wide range of leading retailers.

Corporate social responsibility is intrinsic to our business. We have increased the use of materials from well-managed and recycled sources in UK manufacture, reducing waste and energy use.

Our Mother’s Day Cards For A Cure campaign annually raises more than £1 million to fund breast cancer research.
