The first Staples Office Superstore was opened in May 1986 in Brighton (Boston), Massachusetts. Thus the concept of the Office Superstore was born: this enabled small firms to buy their office supplies at cheaper prices which had previously been an advantage reserved for large companies only. As a retail company with the fastest growth rate in the world, Staples has achieved an annual turnover of over 15 billion US dollars.
Today, over 60,000 employees at the company offer significant cost savings to many different kinds of customer when buying more than 6,500 products with everything for the office. Whether students, smaller companies, medium-sized or large corporations: at Staples everyone is served according to their individual requirements. Office materials, office furniture and office equipment can be purchased in the Office Superstore, chosen from the mail order catalogue or ordered on the Internet. At Staples there are products for every customer's budget and preference. The focus is always on first class quality, a huge choice and guaranteed low prices!
