The wholesale and retail distribution of office paper and other office products generates annual sales of about $55 billion in the US. Large companies include Office Depot, Staples, OfficeMax, Unisource, and the distribution arms of large paper manufacturers. The industry includes "contract stationers," wholesale-retail chains, small dealers, and mail order companies that sell through catalogs or the Internet. The industry has become concentrated: the 50 largest wholesalers hold about 70 percent of the market. A large regional distributor has annual revenue close to $30 million.
Using the 2002 Census Bureau Economic Census, Hoover's has generated an industry financial summary for the Office Products Retail & Distribution industry.
