Quantore sets out its strategy for growth
BPGi member Quantore is building on its strengths in purchasing and logistics with a wider plan to help its members grow.
In a recent interview with Office Products International, Managing Director Jan van de Wouw outlined how the Dutch cooperative is developing its offer for members and customers. Reliable distribution and strong buying power remain central to Quantore, but its next stage of growth also calls for closer collaboration and stronger commercial support.
Quantore’s strategy centres on four areas: membership, retail, trading and collaboration. The business is investing in sales, marketing and e-commerce while expanding its product range beyond traditional office supplies into categories including cleaning, ICT, hospitality and medical supplies.
The acquisition of Supplies Service Partner in 2025 has also strengthened Quantore’s retail capabilities and created opportunities to work with larger chains and online businesses. At the same time, Quantore continues to welcome new members to its cooperative.
For BPGi, Quantore’s plans show how an established member organisation is adapting to changes in the workplace supplies market: using its scale and infrastructure to give independent businesses more ways to serve customers and compete.
