Fournier Playing Cards

Fournier is a prestigious brand specializing in manufacturing playing cards. Founded in 1870 by Heraclio Fournier in Vitoria, Spain, the company has grown from a small lithography workshop into one of the most recognized playing card brands globally. Their products are widely favored in professional casinos and by game enthusiasts for their durability and high-quality printing.

Manufacturing primarily takes place in Vitoria, Spain, where the brand maintains its historical and technical roots. The company focuses on specialized cardboard and plastic materials to ensure longevity and a premium feel. In 1986, Naipes Heraclio Fournier was acquired by the United States Playing Card Company (USPCC), which brought it into a major global portfolio of card brands.

In the late 2010s, ownership shifted when Cartamundi, a Belgian conglomerate and world leader in the playing card and board game industry, acquired the United States Playing Card Company and its subsidiaries, including Fournier. Today, Fournier operates as part of the Cartamundi group, benefiting from an extensive international distribution network while maintaining its distinctive Spanish heritage and manufacturing facilities in Spain.
