Our story began in 1971 as Action Envelope, a small Queens, NY print shop serving about 100 local clients. Over the years, we grew into Envelopes.com, a leading e-commerce brand trusted by millions of businesses and individuals nationwide.

**Milestones along the way:**

*   Expanded from a local printer to one of the largest online selections of envelopes, paper, and cover stock
*   Introduced innovative services like white ink, variable data printing, and direct mail campaigns
*   Evolved from a family-owned print shop into a nationally recognized e-commerce leader

While our business has transformed, our core values have remained the same. These principles guide how we serve our customers and shape every decision we make.

**Our values:**

*   **Customer first:** Every interaction matters. We’re committed to dependable service, quick turnaround times, and lasting relationships.
*   **Creativity:** Our wide selection and custom options are designed to spark inspiration and help ideas come to life.
*   **Innovation:** We continuously expand our products, tools, and services to stay ahead of customer needs.
*   **Integrity:** We do business with honesty, care, and respect, earning the trust of businesses and individuals for over 50 years.

Over the past five decades, this combination of innovation, quality, and care has guided our growth. From helping small businesses brand their mailings to providing couples with the perfect envelopes for their wedding invitations, we’ve always focused on products that make a lasting impression. 

Today, Envelopes.com continues to evolve alongside the needs of our customers, with the same dedication to service and craftsmanship that started it all. You can read more about our history and the values that guide us on our [About Us page](https://www.envelopes.com/aboutus).
