Carte Blanche Group

Founded in 1987 with a range of just 12 cards, Carte Blanche Greetings is now an award-winning creator, distributor and licensor of character-branded products, with a portfolio of some of the best-known and most-loved brands on the high street created by its talented in house team. 

With a product portfolio covering greetings cards, toys, giftware, apparel, confectionery, nursery and homeware, Me to You products can be found in 110 markets globally and in 9,000 retailer rooftops in the UK alone. 

The Company sought to replace its existing blend of ABL facility and clearing bank funding, who were unable to meet their requirements in the run up to Christmas, with one simple debt backed facility.

“Working with the teams at ThinCats and Mazars has significantly smoothed the process of applying for CBILS funding for us, enabling us to continue developing our offering and planning for the critical Christmas season and beyond.”
