Midwest Office Supply
MISSION STATEMENT
Our Mission at MOS is to be the premiere provider of the highest quality business products, offer consistent value, state of the art technology and world class customer service for all your business needs, anywhere.
Midwest Office Supply is as an independent office supply and furniture dealer, providing thousands of commercial, governmental, educational and not for profit businesses with office commodities, technology accessories, office furniture, janitorial cleaning supplies and food service consumables. The company was formally established under the laws of the state of Illinois in the year 2000 and has been serving thousands of customers throughout the greater midwest, however, that only tells a fraction of the story.
The key management at Midwest Office Supply have worked together, in the office supply industry, for nearly thirty years. The principals at Midwest have been in the office supply and accessory business throughout central Illinois since the early 1980’s. With a solidly established base in America’s heartland, Midwest started recognizing big changes starting to take shape in the office supply marketplace. Rather than stare at obstacles, Midwest looked at opportunities.
Big retail office supply companies were opening megastores determined to put the small independent dealers out of business. In most cases they did. Big retail supply stores began to pop up in strip malls throughout the country. They owned ballparks, sponsored racecars and season ending football bowl games. Many local independents decided they couldn’t compete.
The Midwest team realized that the only way to remain in the business was to consistently offer their customers four basic advantages when compared to the big boxes: EXCEPTIONAL CUSTOMER SERVICE, GREATER PRODUCT SELECTION, NEXT DAY DELIVERY AND COMPETITIVE PRICING. With these four principals in mind, Midwest was determined and committed to continue to provide something the national chains could not offer: Highly experienced, customer focused, price conscious choices for businesses needing office products.
Additionally, Midwest realized it needed to be able to deliver products to its commercial customer base throughout the country. As a result, Midwest partnered with a $6.4 billion nationwide office products wholesaler, United Stationers. Along with United’s 7,000 employees nationwide, its highly advanced supply chain technology and its distribution and delivery network, Midwest has 68 different distribution centers throughout North America making next day delivery a reality anywhere.
Midwest Office Supply now delivers office supplies, furniture, computer accessories and cleaning supplies throughout the country. Midwest Office Supply has leveraged its strengths and those of United Stationers to offer their customers better selections, better customer service, better consistent pricing than any of the national retail chains. Midwest has grown to be one of the fastest growing independent dealers in the country, bucking industry trends by sticking to the basics, delivering to customers what they want and when they want it.
At MOS we focus on serving the needs of business, not individual consumers. We do not have retail stores. We won’t hire inexperienced shelf-stockers. We Are All Business.
