GNS to acquire WA Stationery

GNS announced yesterday the decision to acquire the WA Stationery business:

Hi there,

I’m writing to you this morning to let you know that GNS Wholesale has agreed to acquire WA Stationery Wholesalers (“WAS”) from its owner, Rik Thornton. As part of the agreement, effective 1 February 2017, GNS will combine its WA-based operations with those of WAS. Our goal is to guarantee the future strength and reliability of the wholesale supply chain in the stationery and office products market in WA.

Working closely with the current management of WAS, GNS intends to combine the best of the two businesses to deliver a stronger product and service offering to customers, build business scale and generate cost efficiencies.

We value our relationship with you highly and I’d like to personally thank you for your ongoing support of GNS.

Further details are in the press release attached, and we will keep you closely informed as we progress. Do feel free to contact me or any of the team if you have any questions.

All the best,

Paul Yardley
CEO
