About Us

Papercor Holdings is an independently owned paper merchant as well as a converter of board and paper that offers a complete range of merchant products and services to the South African printing industry.

The company offers competitively priced products with a ‘just-in-time’ delivery service to a dynamic and demanding printing industry. Our family type work ethic creates a caring business environment with a strong team committed to satisfying the needs of our customers.

Papercor was founded by Mr Geoff Saks in 1988 and, in April 2013, was acquired by a consortium of businessmen, two of whom have not only a combined total of over 50 years’ experience in the industry but share a friendship. The third member is a new entrant to the industry and together they make up Papercor Holdings (Pty) Ltd. In 2017, Vital Solutions PTE acquired a majority shareholding in Papercor Holdings. Vital Solutions, based in Singapore, is an international trader of paper and paper products with a global footprint in South East Asia, Australia, USA, Europe, Africa and South America.

Papercor Holdings and Vital Solutions have had a strong working relationship for a number of years and through this the management of both companies agreed that a closer partnership would not only strengthen Vital’s position in South Africa but also offer Papercor access to a wider network of international suppliers to ready it for an ever changing market.

Papercor, and the staff that support the company, is synonymous with service and quality.
