Service and innovation since 1947
Hemingways is an independent sales and marketing company based in Ripon, North Yorkshire. The company was first established in Leeds in 1918 and during its history has been involved in a number of business activities including furniture retailing, department store retailing, consumer credit and confectionery distribution.
Hemingways Marketing Services was established as a trading company in 1947. Hemingways takes its name from the company’s founder John Hemingway who started his business issuing Star Credit Vouchers – an early form of gift vouchers.
The main trading arm is Hemingways Marketing Services Ltd, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Hemingways (Furnishers) Ltd – the name a throwback to the days when Hemingways ran a number of furniture stores around West Yorkshire. Hemingways also operates a property side to the business.
Hemingways remains an independent company operating in a number of niche markets, primarily retail gift vouchers, gift cards and branded confectionery. In all cases our operations involve working on a national scale with big brands and high volume sales.
Operations now include wholesale and consumer sales on behalf of Cadbury and Green & Black's; white label gift voucher and gift card solutions for over 35 major retailers; corporate fulfilment services via our dedicated handling operation - Vex Accounts; The Gift List - an online wedding and gift list service; and consumer and corporate voucher sales via Voucher Express.
