Spicers, Shippers Supply and All Graphic Supplies to operate under one brand in Canada

VAUGHAN — Spicers Canada (a division of Central National Gottesman-CNG), a distributor of paper and specialty products, graphics and sign solutions, and industrial packaging supplies to the Canadian market, announced on Mar. 3 that all divisions will begin to operate under a single brand – Spicers. Previously, in addition to Spicers in Canada, Shippers Supply and All Graphic Supplies operated as separate entities since being acquired in December 2017 and February 2020, respectively.

Shippers Supply is based in Edmonton, AB and operating from nine locations is a manufacturer and distributor of industrial supplies and packaging products across Western Canada. All Graphic Supplies, based in Mississauga, ON, is a distributor of media and turnkey equipment solutions to the sign graphics, textile, digital label and specialty product market operating from six Canadian locations as well as the Caribbean (Trinidad and Tobago).

“Both Shippers Supply and All Graphic Supplies have proven incredibly beneficial additions to the company,” said Spicers Canada President Cory Turner. “Since their acquisitions, all three organizations have used the opportunity to not only fully understand all available solutions, resources and assets, but also find ways to work collaboratively in the pursuit of unified success.”

Jerry Pierce, VP Sales – Shippers Supply, added, “I am excited we are creating a single brand that will provide many benefits for our customers, suppliers and most of all our incredible employees!” Chris DeSouza, President of All Graphic Supplies, added, “We are excited to enhance our combined customer, supplier, and team experiences as we optimistically look to the future.”

Turner notes that customers may notice highly visible changes, including signage, trucks, websites and marketing materials beginning to reflect the single brand in the first half of 2021.
