France Cartes Cartamundi specialises in the production and creation of cards:
The history of the France Cartes Group begins with Baptiste-Paul Grimaud, who in 1848 bought the workshop of Master Cardmaker Arnould, established in Paris in 1750. In 1946, Jean-Marie Simon created the Ducale brand in Nancy, then in 1962, he bought the Grimaud company to become the number one cardmaker in France, France Cartes. In 1989, Yves Weisbuch took over the business which he had helped grow since 1962 as sales manager. With the takeover of Héron in 1994, France Cartes became Groupe France Cartes. Subsequently, other acquisitions were made, as in 2003 with that of Editions Dusserre, specializing in historical cards. In 2014, as part of its international expansion, the Cartamundi group acquired France Cartes, offering the French market a wider and more complete range of cards and gaming accessories.
Grimaud, Master Cardmaker since 1848Edit
The quality of playing cards is the result of handed-down knowledge and results in clean graphics, smooth touch, optimal glide, perfect opacity, rounded corners, double-headed designs and formats adapted to the type of game.
It is therefore thanks to the demands of a master cardmaker[2] over a period of 170 years, that Grimaud was able to develop ranges of card games for social use and tournaments. On the occasion of Grimaud's 170th birthday, the company worked with the French Football Federation to support the French team during the FIFA World Cup.
Two packs of 54 cards were specially designed for the event: a classic collector's pack in the colours of 'the Blues' (index, format and French portraits) and a pack with pictures of the players (index, format and French football players).
