Managing Director Mark Schultze started the company with a small but dedicated customer base in 1990. Since then, the story has been one of steady growth, from starting the operation at Mark's Totton home, to an office/warehouse at the New Forest Enterprise Centre, to the 4,000 sq ft warehouse premises in Brunel Road, Totton today. Since day one, Mark has had faith in the values of good old-fashioned service, flexibility and the ability to respond to customer orders at short notice. This faith has been well-rewarded, as today M&A Office Supplies is a successful small-to medium-size company with a multi-million pound turnover that is growing year on year.

From its beginning concentrating on deliveries in the Totton and Southampton area, M&A Office Supplies has expanded its capabilities and can now offer its first class service nationwide. However, this does not mean that the founding principles have been forgotten. Mark remains very much a hands-on boss. "I'm not the sort of person who sits in the office all day, looking out of the window and wondering how things are going. I'm very much part of the team - out there prospecting for new business, helping install furniture, demonstrating new products and resolving any problems." This is an ethos shared by all the employees of the company, who are each familiar with all areas of the business. Combine this with cutting-edge customer management computer software and you have the efficient and customer-focused company that M&A Office Supplies is today.
