    Brief history of the product

    MOO was founded in 2006 in London, UK, by Richard Moross. The company was born out of a desire to disrupt the traditional printing industry by combining great design with accessible technology. One of its initial popular products was the “MiniCard,” a smaller format business card that leveraged an integration with the photo-sharing site Flickr, allowing users to easily create a pack of cards with different images on each one. This early innovation was the foundation for its Printfinity technology. Over the years, MOO has expanded its product offerings and global presence, establishing offices in the US and focusing on serving both individual professionals and large enterprise businesses with its premium branding solutions.
