About ManaHive
Your trusted source for premium trading card game products since 2022
Our Mission
At ManaHive, we’re passionate about connecting TCG enthusiasts with the cards they love while fostering a community of players, collectors, and strategists. We believe every card tells a story, and we’re here to help you write yours.
Our Founder
Alex Carter, a lifelong TCG enthusiast and former tournament player, founded ManaHive in 2022 with a simple vision: to create a UK-based TCG store that prioritizes quality, authenticity, and community. With over 15 years of experience in competitive play and card valuation, Alex ensures every product meets our high standards.
“I started ManaHive because I wanted to build more than just a store – I wanted to create a hub where players could find not just cards, but a community that shares their passion.”
Our Story
The Beginning
ManaHive was founded in London as a small online store specializing in Magic: The Gathering singles. Our first warehouse was a converted garage with just 200 inventory items.
Expanding Our Reach
We expanded our inventory to include Pokémon TCG and Yu-Gi-Oh! products, and moved to our first professional warehouse space in Manchester. Launched our loyalty program with 1,000 founding members.
Community Growth
Hosted our first official tournaments and became an authorized retailer for all major TCG publishers. Surpassed 10,000 satisfied customers across the UK.
Looking Forward
Now one of the UK’s fastest-growing TCG retailers, we’re focused on enhancing our customer experience with faster shipping, exclusive products, and community events.
