Marblehead / Massachusetts / United States
In 1977, from the seaside town of Marblehead, Massachusetts, Edward OConnor started Abbott Cards. A salesman all his life, Ed understood the importance of saying "thank you". With this in mind, he designed a thank you card for companies to send to their customers. He began selling these cards to New England companies and, before long, his customers discovered that the cards greatly enhanced their businesses. Today, Edward OConnors simple idea has blossomed into a thriving business, serving more than 50, 000 customers across the United States. Abbott Cards is now owned and operated by the second generation of OConnors: Mike, Jim, Kathy, and Mary. They share and continue their fathers belief in offering companies a convenient, professional way to say thank you. "To be the premier source of greeting cards for businesses. We are committed to providing distinctive cards and quality service that continually exceed our customers expectations."
