Evergreen Group

What Evergreen Group does

Evergreen Group Pte Ltd is a Singapore-incorporated, privately held office supplies and stationery distributor founded in 1973, operating from a 15,000 sq ft freehold commercial facility at 8 New Industrial Road that houses corporate headquarters, logistics, and warehousing. The company distributes more than 4,000 products spanning adhesives and tapes, art and school supplies, audio/visual equipment, computer supplies, ink cartridges and toners, office equipment, packaging materials, paper products, signage, and writing supplies. Its core technology is an in-house e-procurement platform that integrates into enterprise client infrastructure at no cost and provides budget control, cost-centre allocation, approval workflows, custom contract pricing, and order tracking - capabilities typically found in larger procurement suites. The Hook & Display Division supplies retail point-of-purchase accessories and hang tabs, and the company holds sole Singapore distribution rights for STY Signs and Selleys Super Glue.

The company sells through three GTM channels: a B2B e-procurement platform serving 1,000+ multinational companies and government agencies, a B2C self-service e-commerce portal at evergreen.com.sg, and four physical retail outlets at Great World City, Suntec City Mall Tower 3, Parkway Parade, and Bukit Merah. Pricing uses a tiered unit-pricing model with delivery charges scaled to order value (free at SGD 150 and above) and excludes Jurong Island, Sentosa, and secured facilities; pricing is ex-warehouse Singapore, includes GST, and is subject to change without notice. Customer segmentation is horizontal, with multinational corporates, government agencies, and SOHOs all served, and the business earns revenue primarily through one-time retail and wholesale product sales plus transaction-based e-commerce sales.

Evergreen maintains long-standing distributor relationships with 3M, IMATION (Platinum Partnership, 1999-2003), GBC Asia/ACCO Brands (Top Ten Dealer, 2000-2007), and UNI MITSHBISHI Pencil, and has received consecutive Singapore SME 500 recognition between 2004 and 2008 along with a statutory membership in the Singapore Business Federation in 2005. The company employs 40+ staff and 10 agents, retains no disclosed parent, has no subsidiaries, and has no public funding history; all revenue and ownership details are undisclosed. Despite a stated vision to become "the most preferred local and global office supplies business," all reported operations and customer relationships remain confined to Singapore.

Regional players

• Officeworks (Wesfarmers): Australia's largest office and stationery retailer, part of Wesfarmers, operating physical stores plus a multi-channel B2B/B2C offering. Comparable as a multi-channel office/stationery retailer with both walk-in and enterprise supply capability across the Asia-Pacific region.
• Popular Holdings: Singapore-based bookstore and stationery retailer with multiple outlets. Comparable as a Singapore-headquartered stationery and office supplies retailer with physical store presence serving similar walk-in and SOHO customers in the same Singapore market.
• Ryman (Ryman Group): UK's largest specialist stationery retailer operating high-street stores plus a B2B division. Comparable as a stationery-focused multi-channel retailer with both retail and business-customer supply, providing a UK regional analogue to Evergreen's positioning.
