We’ve come a long way since our founder, Harry Percy Gibson
formed H.P Gibson & Sons in 1919. Now in our fourth generation with Harry’s
great-grandaughter, Kate leading the way, we’re proud of our British heritage
and challenges we have overcome.
Whilst our product ranges have changed over the years (we
didn’t start with jigsaws!), our core values have remained strong: bringing
people together. This is at the heart of what we do and we ensure that any
products we develop support this.
We also firmly believe in business as a force for good, whether it’s making locally
sourced products, focusing on sustainability initiatives such as our partnership with OneTribe to using talented local artists.
Today we have a fabulous collection of family board games,
hundreds of jigsaw puzzles ranging in piece counts and size and a great
assortment of playing cards. There is something for everyone in our range and
we can’t wait for you to start making memories. From our family to yours –
enjoy!
Celebrating 100 years of Gibsons
Our puzzles are made from the thickest board on the market.
We produce games and puzzles that entertain all generations.
We use 100% recycled board for our entire jigsaw range and work with the best artists from all around the world.
Our games are made from reforested hardwoods.
In the UK, we have sold over a million units of our game, Pass the Bomb.
Our puzzles sell 1.2x faster than other puzzle brands (*Based on value velocity in the UK, June 2019-June 2020 sales. Official figures from the NPD Group UK)
Hello! We are the Gibsons gang. Hover over our photos to find out more about our team.
It is an honour and a privilege to continue what my great grandfather started back in 1919. Every day is different and there are times when running the family business brings challenges to overcome, but primarily there is pride and excitement at being part of something very special.
Working at Gibsons means being open to adapting and learning new things wherever we can, ensuring that we move forward and get better at what we do. Games, puzzles, people and play just about sums up what we do here, but the most important of these is people.
The Gibsons Gang are at the heart of our company, their passion driving us forward. I can’t wait to see what the next 100 years bring…
We’re going to need a new trophy shelf at this rate!
