Guernsey based Moonpig, producers of online personalised greeting cards, have grown from strength to strength since they were founded in July 2000 by Nick Jenkins. Nick Jenkins struggled through the collapse of the dotcom era and after raising further investment started to see growth until profits were first recorded in 2005. The real advancement came following their first television advertising campaign in 2006 and sales have grown substantially since then. By the end of 2009 Moonpig boasted almost 2.6million greeting card customers. The company then established a base in Australia before launching in America in 2010. Moonpig now boast a staggering turnover in excess of £30 million. That represents more than 10 million greeting cards!
Amazingly other online personalised greeting card producers have been relatively slow to follow. That is until now! It now seems that a new operator is launching almost every week.
