Publishers Clearing House (PCH)
About Company
Publishers Clearing House (PCH), founded in 1953 by Harold and LuEsther T. Mertz, began by selling magazine subscriptions through the mail. Fueled by TV advertising and huge sweepstakes prize awards, PCH soon came to be known for the roving prize patrol van and surprise delivery of giant checks. But that is only the beginning of our story….
Over time, the company diversified its product lines and channels of distribution to serve its customers who embraced online shopping, entertainment and social media.
