SubscribeACCO Brands Corporation is the newly-created company formed through the spin-off of Fortune Brands' ACCO World office products unit and its merger with General Binding Corporation (GBC), which was officially completed August 17th.
ACCO Brands becomes one of the world’s largest manufacturers and suppliers of branded Office & Print products with global annual revenues of approximately $2 billion, of which approximately 28% comes from its European operations.
David Campbell, ACCO Brands’ Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "This marks the start of what we expect will be an exciting future for ACCO Brands in Europe, as we focus on stepped-up product innovation as well as further developing our low-cost supply chains and shared services through our extensive network of trading companies and manufacturing centres in Europe.
“With approximately 85% of our sales from brands with number one or number two market positions in many European markets; our broad portfolio of products; our European wide distribution reach; and our shared services capability, we stand alone in the industry in Europe.
“I have no doubt that our vision of being a sought-after company delivering exceptional value will be well-accepted by the European Office Products and Print industries."
