About Us

Since 1987, McMillan has been distributing quality greeting cards, gifts, and homewares to destinations across Australia. We operate from our owned warehouse and office building in Frenchs Forest on Sydney’s Northern Beaches.

Our Greeting Cards

Greeting cards form the cornerstone of McMillan, representing 50% of our business. It’s where we started all those years ago, and a passion that ensures a huge variety for our customers. Sourced almost entirely from the UK, our collection features Britain’s most highly regarded and award-winning publishers, with ranges exclusive to McMillan. The diverse collection covers all occasions and relations, including art cards and intellectual humour.

Premium European made Paper Serviettes

McMillan is proud to be the major supplier to the Australian market of paper serviettes from Europe’s three best manufacturers:

  • IHR (Ideal Home Range) – Germany’s respected design leaders, featuring licensed designs from Marimekko, the world-renowned design company founded in Helsinki, Finland in 1951
  • Caspari Inc. – A USA-based company offering rich and bold designs in beautifully coordinated tabletop collections
  • PPD (PaperProducts Designs) – Ever modern, trend-leading, and creative designs

All our napkins are FSC accredited, 3-ply quality, and printed with up to 12 colours on white recycled paper. The extensive range spans classic to modern designs with multiple colour choices to complement any tabletop setting—and they’re a staple for the Christmas table.
