The Comedy Card Company is an established online retailer of funny greeting cards. More recently, we have also been publishing our own range of humorous cards. We hope to have the widest and best selection of humorous cards available online.
We stock a really wide selection of cards from lots of different card publishers, from the large to the small, with the aim of having something for everyone - humour is a broad church after all. We started our company in 2011 and have gradually grown to become an established source of funny greeting cards online. We only sell the original cards as produced by the various publishers who supply us: we are not a 'print-on-demand' type business.
More recently we have also been designing our own cards to sell on our website. We have been selling these alongside the more established players. To our delight (read surprise!), they have been proved popular with our customers - so much so that they now make up a significant proportion of our retail sales. This had led us to start offering our cards to other retailers via a dedicated trade website and to start making an appearance at the odd trade fair or two.
We are busy throughout the year, everyday cards like birthdays taking the lion's share but there are also lots of funny 'Spring Season' cards around. Valentine's day cards, Mother's day cards and especially Father's Day cards give us little peaks during the first half of the year (poor Dad in particular gets a lot of stick from the card publishers!). However Christmas is definitely our busiest time when we are stocked to the rafters with cards busting with humour about Santa, the Three Wise Men, the family gatherings, the endless food (especially sprouts) and drink . . .
We really enjoy being a (small) part of the greeting card industry. It's such a friendly industry packed full of talented, creative people which is really inspirational. As we specialise in humour, we only focus on funny cards and what I truly enjoy is finding some new cards that really make me laugh. I then can't wait to show them to our customers (and hope they like them too)
Working hard to offer a fast and friendly service, we have built up a lovely group of loyal customers. We hope to keep them amused with regular additions of new material and we are always on the look out for potential new suppliers. We love funny cards and we believe that if you are going to send a card, it should make the recipient smile or even laugh out loud!
