80+ year-old paper & paperboard merchant, converter, and much more!

🎶 When your paper and board is in short supply, who you gonna call? Case Paper! 🎶 We are one of the largest privately held distributors and custom converters of paper and paperboard for the printing and packaging industries. We’re not talking copier paper (think more like paper for signage, brochures, or direct mail) and not cardboard that carries your Amazon orders (our products are used more for packaging cosmetics, personal care products, food, and technology to name a few).

With branches in California, Pennsylvania, New York, Illinois, Indiana, Florida, and North Carolina, we’ve built a solid reputation for being “On the Case” to get you what you need, where and when you need it. We do not, however, bust ghosts…yet.

At Case, It’s A Family Affair!

A lot has changed since we were founded in 1943 – our industry, capabilities, partnerships, the products we offer…but our commitment and passion to go above and beyond for others has never changed.

We chalk that up to the fact that our Case Paper family doesn’t end with Schaffers and Koshes and Goldbergs (oh my!). We consider all our employees and partners to be part of the Case Paper clan. Through generations of family management, we always put our people first – after all, you can’t grow branches without strong roots!

Just like you can’t have a paper industry without paper, you can’t have Teamwork without a team. People always come first at Case Paper, which is why we celebrate being “On the Case” or going above and beyond for customers, fellow employees, and the communities around us.

We may not be on a Mission to Mars (…or are we..?) but our standards for teamwork, reliability, quality, and sustainability are out of this world! Our mission is to make every customer a customer for life…which leads us into our Core Values!

“May the F.O.R.T.H. be with you.” Not a Star Wars fan? Let us explain…

We are willing to grow, try new things, and embrace them with a positive attitude. We are very flexible (especially when it means helping teammates and customers) and we will always bend over backward to help in any way we can. It does NOT, however, mean we can actually touch our toes. At least without bending at the knees. That’s just asking too much.

We own our work. Whether it’s the expectations of ourselves and our teammates or our decisions. We learn from it and celebrate the good together. We also spread contagious enthusiasm for how we own things just like a veggie cream cheese schmear on a bagel.

Our actions create our reputation, so we do what we say, and we say what we do. We lead by example and assume positive intent, always. Sometimes that means we can be maybe a little TOO helpful. Asking everything from “How else can we help?” to “Do you need a dog-sitter this weekend?”

We champion the successes of everyone in our company and recognize how much stronger collaboration makes us. Therefore, we strive to encourage clear communication and engagement from all levels of the company. We’re always willing to offer a (sterilized) hand to a teammate in need!

Here at Case, humor is no laughing matter. Except the laughing part. We keep our dads on speed-dial, and they always deliver an a-pun-dant number of tear-able jokes. It’s a family business, after all.
