Gift Universe Group Ltd

We're a growing multi-channel gift and gadget retailer operating in a highly competitive environment. We have a number of retail stores and a cracking website, and you can also find us on third party marketplaces. In addition, we also supply a range of different businesses through our wholesale arm, The Source. The company featured in the Sunday Times Fast Track 100 group of the fastest growing private companies for two years running, As Menkind, we opened our first store in 2002 in Uxbridge and can now be found in over 60 different locations around the country as well as online at www.menkind.co.uk. Under the direction of Founder and Chief Executive Paul Kraftman, the business has grown steadily, specialising in original gifts and gadgets that range from licensed products to personalised items and tech. Thanks to its longstanding relationship with partners and suppliers, Menkind can count on being among the first retailers to bring new products to market, making them available before most of the competition. Through The Source, we supply some of the biggest names on the high street with unique product ranges that we have generally either developed ourselves or brought into the UK for the first time, giving us a unique insight into the gifting industry as a whole that allows us to buy and sell the latest and most cutting edge products. We are committed to sustainability by working increasingly more with suppliers who use biodegradable plastics and by refurbishing and reselling damaged products – often at a loss – to offset our environmental impact.
