LovePop wants to disrupt Hallmark. Founder Wombi Rose
says that buying greeting cards “has become a chore,” and that his
Harvard-spawned startup is “bringing the magic back to an industry that
has lost its way.” The cards are dazzling — intricate pop-ups that are
made in Vietnam at LovePop’s own production facility. They sell for $8
to $13, and a LovePop table in the lobby was doing brisk business at the
conclusion of Tuesday’s proceedings. The company has seven retail
kiosks in Massachusetts, Nevada, and California, and Rose says that the
company’s current revenue run rate is $1 million. Not bad for a company
born in early 2014.
