How Menkind Started
Menkind began in 2001 as a gift shop selling unusual and novelty products. The business gradually expanded its selection of gadgets, technology, licensed merchandise and personalised presents, developing into an online and in-store retailer.
It is part of Gift Universe Group, which also operates a wholesale division supplying gifts and gadgets to other retailers. In November 2022, the group moved to an employee-ownership structure, with the majority of the business held for the benefit of its employees.
