History
Founded in Preston in 1962, Studio originally specialised in paper products, such as greetings cards, and sold them through a mail order catalogue. Over time, the company expanded, and in 1974 it bought its sister company, now known as Ace, selling a similar product range to that of Studio.
In 2003, Studio extended its product range by introducing a discounted clothing and footwear range.
To develop its online presence and give customers an alternative way to shop with the company, Studio launched the online version of its catalogue in 2010: Studio.co.uk.
