Is It Art was formed in 1995 and today is one of the most influential greeting card distributors/licensees to the UK market. We provide an alternative way for UK & overseas publishing based companies to maximise their product sales through our international sales infrastructure.

We do not publish any products under the Is It Art name, exclusively devoting our time to the promotion of our client’s products. Our goal is to become a publisher’s exclusive distributor, or licensee, to all or parts of the UK/European market place.

To this end we offer a national employee based sales team (with associate agency partnerships in strategic locations) and central warehouse facilities. We process orders through a comprehensive customer services department, either physically or online, supported by sophisticated software systems. We collect our own receivables & provide all after-sales support.

To medium - larger UK based publishers Is It Art provides a complete sales solution to the independent card sector, by way of our comprehensive sales force & distribution infrastructure, allowing the publisher to maintain a direct relationship with larger retailers whilst designating all other accounts to Is It Art. This provides excellent cost savings whilst maintaining a professional and non-competitive representation of their products to the Independent greetings sector.

To smaller - medium or overseas publishersIs It Art are able to provide instant distribution via our mature & stable sales force and one of the largest independent customer account listings in the industry. This strength is vital to growing new or established product ranges to desired distribution/profitability levels.

We currently provide national/international distribution for a select number of publishers, representing the best in sentiment, contemporary, humour and licensed products.

Is It Art have built up a customer base in the UK of over 3,000 retail stores; from high street retailers, such as Clinton Cards/Birthdays, to regional groups & quality independent stores.

We are a highly rated supplier to the national buying group Cardgains, where Is It Art rank within the top 3 greetings card suppliers. We are also a key supplier to other buying groups such as Gainsmore, Bridewell Direct, Toymaster, Link etc.
