About Us
Simon Elvin is a family owned business, started in 1978 by Simon and Janet Elvin,
focused on producing popular, high quality and value for money greeting cards and allied products.
We are based in Wooburn Green, a village in Buckinghamshire, where the production of our cards
takes part from start to finish. All on the same site, we employ 150 staff, including artists to
design the cards, verse writers to create the right sentiment, specialist machine operators to
produce beautiful finishes on a card, and our own warehousing to store and despatch the finished
product in our own vehicles. In fact, our cards are printed less than a mile away at our sister
company, Imperial Litho, a state of the art print works designed and built specially for the fast,
efficient, top quality printing of greeting cards, with the capacity to produce in excess of 10
million cards a week.
Great cards and great customer service make Simon Elvin one of the best known signatures in the
trade, appearing on over 100 million cards every year. We are now the proud recipients of no less
than 14 'Henries' awards (the greeting card equivalent of an Oscar!) for our fabulous designs. In
an industry which has low consumer brand awareness, the Simon Elvin logo acts as a personal
endorsement of quality, value for money and shelf appeal.
