What Cedar Group does

Cedar Group is a privately held UK marketing, print and packaging group headquartered in Romsey, Hampshire, operating from a 20,000 sq ft facility. Established as a consolidated group in 2023 (with firmographic heritage dating to 1972), it employs 51-100 people and organises its business around three wholly-owned divisions: Cedar Packaging Group (CPG), an award-winning manufacturer of luxury packaging, giftware and membership packs for sports, entertainment, luxury brands and retail clients globally; Cedar Group Agency (CGA), a marketing and operational agency that serves exclusively the financial services sector, particularly premium banking clients managing high net worth individuals, with a focus on mitigating information security risk; and Cedar Group Interiors (CGI), a commercial interior design, fit-out and refurbishment business targeting offices, hospitality and collaborative spaces.

Underlying technology centres on industry-standard litho and digital printing capability with specialist papers, accurate colour matching and precise finishing, used to produce high-end brochures, annual reports, magazines, personalised booklets and limited-edition prints. The group holds UKAS accreditation and Carbon Neutral Certification (Cedar Packaging Limited, 2025). Cedar Group's business model is quote-based and project-driven, reflecting the bespoke nature of luxury packaging, bespoke marketing collateral and fit-out engagements. Go-to-market is direct sales via phone and email, supported by four division-specific websites (cedargroup.uk.com, cedarpackaging.com, cedargroup.agency, cedargroupinteriors.com). Customer segments span luxury and premium retail, premium banking and financial services, sports and entertainment, and commercial interiors. No pricing, revenue, or ownership/investor information is publicly disclosed.
