History

Formed in 2002 from the merger of MoDo Office and County Paper, Talk Paper benefit from the strength and size of our parent company but operate on a standalone basis in the UK and Ireland. Our wholly owned dedicated logistics provider, gm2 Logistics boasts 16 distribution locations around the country; including two central distribution centres (CDC) providing the main stockholding and the 14 regional distribution centres (RDC) throughout the UK and Ireland. Resulting in enabling Talk Paper to deliver anywhere in the UK.

The UK's first dedicated national office paper merchant, Talk Paper is a direct subsidiary of the largest paper merchanting group in Europe - Antalis .
