Paris Corporation

What Paris Corporation does

Paris Corporation is a privately held, family-owned paper converting and specialty products manufacturer founded in 1964 by Dominic P. Toscani, Sr. and currently led by second-generation CEO Gerry Toscani. Headquartered in Westampton, New Jersey with distribution centers in Sparks, Nevada and Fort Worth, Texas, the company employs 51–100 people and operates six sub-brands: PrintWorks and PrintWorks Professional (specialty and business/office papers including perforated, punched, and continuous computer forms); DocuGard (security paper and business checks with up to ten anti-fraud security features); DocIt (poly organizers including patented 8 Pocket Folder and 4 Pocket Binder); Elementree (sustainable printer paper, void fill, bubble paper, and padded envelopes made from recycled and residual materials); and Weego (portable jump starters and battery packs with patented Smarty Clamps). The company also holds exclusive OEM distribution agreements with HP and Hammermill paper brands, extending Paris's role as an intermediary between paper mills, OEMs, and mass-market retailers.

The company's core technology centers on proprietary converting capabilities — custom perforation and punch placement with up to six-color printing — together with patented product designs (Smarty Clamps, 8 Pocket Folder, 4 Pocket Binder) and supply-chain certifications (FSC, SFI). Paris makes money primarily through one-time sales of physical goods across six sub-brands, supplemented by OEM distribution fees on HP, Hammermill, Kodak, and Xerox paper lines. Go-to-market is a multi-channel hybrid: authorized resellers, direct e-commerce through pariscorp.com and Amazon storefronts, exclusive OEM license agreements, paper merchants such as Lindenmeyr Munroe and Veritiv, and shelf placement at major US retailers including Target, Walmart, Walgreens, Office Depot, Best Buy, Hobby Lobby, and Rite Aid. Pricing is unit-based with quote-driven custom work; products are not sold on subscription or recurring-license terms.

Customer segments span consumer/crafter/teacher markets, commercial businesses (healthcare forms, security checks, custom forms), and vehicle owners via Weego. Marketing relies on organic social, content/blog, community programs (Teacher Appreciation Club, Craft Club), an influencer program for craft and education creators, and email newsletters. The company has remained privately held under Toscani family ownership with no disclosed institutional investors, no funding rounds, and no mergers or acquisitions in the available data.
