Redd Paper Company incorporated and opened its doors in 1994 as a Fine Paper distribution business serving the Orlando market. Starting out in a 15,000 square foot facility, Johnny and Sherry along with one other employee, sought to become the best independently owned fine paper distributor in Florida.

The Redd Family quickly found a niche, serving a customer base that has been overlooked and overwhelmed with buying restrictions of the other major competitors.

In 1998, the warehouse capacity was doubled to meet the additional growth patterns. The Redd's have always found it in their best interest to hire veterans of the industry with the knowledge and expertise necessary to conduct business with confidence and professionalism. Today we have over 50 employees with a combined 200 plus years of industry expertise.

Redd Paper expanded into the Tampa market in 2002 with great success. In 2003, we grew again into our current facility at 3851 Center Loop in Orlando, with over 65,000 square feet of warehouse space. In addition, that year Redd Paper Company made the decision to diversify into the Industrial packaging and supply arena. Aligning itself with strategic suppliers to offer a line of products and equipment to meet every need, this venture has been successful and continues to be a huge focus on our future growth. Our most recent branch opened in Jacksonville, FL in June of 2005, expanding our coverage into north Florida.

Our current state gives us market coverage from the east to the west coast covering north and central Florida with three locations. We feel the true secret to success is in this simple philosophy; “To meet the needs and demands of our customers, rather than insisting they meet ours.”

New technology and changing business strategies will keep us viable with the demands of the future, but the philosophy will remain the same; Customers First!
