Greeting Card Association
The GCA is the voice of the UK greeting card community and promotes the healthy growth of the industry.
We do this by representing the industry with organisations that impact greeting card sales, such as the media, government and Royal Mail. We promote and encourage greeting card sending and develop initiatives, such as Thinking of You Week and Festive Friday, to highlight the benefits of card sending.
The GCA maintains a comprehensive website and Members’ Library to support and inform members, providing specialist advice and support. We negotiate discounts and other Member Benefits from specialist suppliers on behalf of our members and compile an annual greeting card market report, available to non-members for £750+VAT.
Our Members’ Directory is a key trade source for retailers and card consumers.
The GCA also organises member-only networking events that provide opportunities to build business relationships and keep up to date with pressing industry issues.https://www.gca.cards/category/gca-events/
Our vision is that people from all communities continue to use greeting cards to connect with friends and family at special occasions and just to say ‘thinking of you’.
