Association Objectives

The Australian Greeting Card Association (AGCA) is a representative group for the Greeting Card Industry.

Formed in 1991, its members are drawn from publishers, printers, suppliers, designers, photographers, and other associated industries, all with a common interest in the growth and development of the Greeting Card Industry in Australia.

The activities of AGCA are best illustrated in the following...

Greeting Cards help people communicate their feelings; that makes them feel good.

Read between the lines of any greeting card and it will say:

“I sent you this card because I thought of you today and I wanted you to know”

A Greeting Card enables people to convey feelings and emotions that they are unable to express any other way.

Therein lies the secret of the Greeting Card industry - we provide a service.
