Dear Valued Emerald Customer,

2010 marked Emerald’s 22nd. anniversary, and we’re pleased to count you among our loyal customers. We’re proud to say we’re a family-owned business, locally owned and operated since our beginning in 1988. My brothers John, Tim, Joe, Jim and I grew up on Emerald Street, right here in Philadelphia, where the principles of quality, pride and service were instilled in us as children. When we began Emerald Business Supply, we named it for the street where we grew up. The values this “band of brothers” learned back on Emerald Street continue to guide us every day. Thanks to those principles and to you, our loyal customers, Emerald has grown into a successful national office products dealership.

As part of one of the largest independent buying groups in the country, we are able to offer you competitive prices with conveniences and services you won’t find anywhere else. Our new 2010 Emerald Business Supply office products catalog is filled with over 40,000 products…it’s everything you need to keep your business going. And in addition to offering an excellent selection, Emerald offers unbeatable service. With over 44 distribution sites across the country, we are able to offer next-day delivery nationwide. We offer a state-of-the-art e-commerce site, so ordering is quick and easy. We’ll even work with your accounting systems to provide customized billing options, including monthly billing reports by division, if you’d like to see how your purchases break down within your business.

We offer big-company capabilities, so no order is too big; likewise, no order is too small…we’re dedicated to serving all our customers with the same family-style personalized service and attention that has made us what we are today. When you work with Emerald, we treat you like one of the family!

We sincerely appreciate your business, and look forward to working with you in the years to come. At Emerald, we want to be your go-to source for your complete office solutions…and we want to continue to earn your trust and your business.

Sincerely,

Michael A. O’Connell Sr.
