'Cardelium' was founded in 2012 by mum of 2, Anthea Orchard. 

The business operated from the family home in the early days.  But the popularity of the business meant that Cardelium was able to expand into it's first ever shop back in September 2014.

By early 2018, it was apparent that the shop wasn’t big enough for the business that it had become.  As such, we have just moved premises into a bigger. brighter and cleaner unit, just down the road from our old shop.

Based on the outskirts of Halifax, the shop is home to one of the largest selections of balloons in the area.  It also has a large selection of greeting cards, gift wrap and party goods, as well as the odd gift for that special person.

Anthea believes that professionalism is everything.  Cardelium is a member of BAPIA, The Balloon and Party Industry Alliance, and as such also has full public liability insurance.

Back in November 2016,, Anthea qualified as a Certified Balloon Artist (CBA), the most respected and comprehensive certification in the balloon industry.  The CBA designation recognises dedicated individuals who have achieved the highest levels of skill and demonstrated their ability in balloon gifts, bouquets and decorating.
