Evolution of an industry changes the world of business.
In the mid-1980s, the office products industry began to consolidate. As more and more alliances were created, three of the largest office products distributors joined forces to create the new Corporate Express–now the world’s largest business-to-business supplier of essential office and computer products and services–serving customers in 28 countries.
From the beginning, we’ve listened to our customers needs and answered their procurement questions in a major way.
