For over 160 years, we've believed in a simple idea: that a moment of shared joy can make all the difference. At IEFC, we dedicate ourselves to creating those moments. From the puzzles and games that gather families around the table to the experiences that make every day a little brighter, our purpose is to add more fulfillment to the world, one piece at a time.
The International Emotional Fulfillment Corporation began in 1858 with a simple vision from our founder, Cornelius J. Abernathy: that well-made goods could be a source of genuine happiness.
Through the decades, as the world changed, our commitment to that vision never wavered. We've grown from a small workshop into a company whose products are enjoyed around the globe, but our core values of quality, integrity, and service remain the bedrock of all we do. We are proud of our long history and look forward to the future as we continue to find new ways to deliver on our founding promise.
Every IEFC product is made with care, quality, and a deep respect for the people who will enjoy it. We create puzzles, games, and toys that are more than just objects, they are opportunities for connection, moments of quiet focus in a busy world, and keepsakes to be passed down through generations. Our commitment to timeless design and durable craftsmanship ensures that these moments are built to last.
Beyond the products we make, we partner with organizations to improve daily life in our communities. A waiting room can be a place to connect, a daily commute can have a moment of delight. We use our expertise in positive experience design to find simple, effective ways to bring more ease and enjoyment to public spaces and customer interactions, making the ordinary feel a little more extraordinary.
At IEFC, our work is focused on two interconnected areas: creating products that bring lasting enjoyment and designing experiences that improve everyday life.
We create tangible goods designed to bring people closer. Our collection of puzzles, games, and toys is built on a foundation of quality craftsmanship and timeless appeal. We believe that the best products are a gateway to connection and contentment. Each item is developed with a simple goal: to provide a rewarding experience, whether it's a quiet afternoon spent on a puzzle or a lively evening of family games.
We believe that the quality of our daily lives is shaped by the environments we move through. Our consulting teams partner with organizations to improve these everyday journeys. From making public spaces more engaging to creating more seamless and welcoming customer interactions, we apply our principles of thoughtful design to transform ordinary moments into positive and memorable experiences.
