Overview
What began more than 40 years ago as a distribution company has transformed into the industry-leading enterprise Unisource is today. We offer a comprehensive suite of strategic solutions and innovative products to help you build your business.

Unisource was founded in 1968 when Alco Standard Corp. formed a distribution company that soon would become known as Unisource Worldwide, Inc. By the early 1980s, Alco Standard had become the most efficient, cost-effective, multi-product distributor in the country. By 1986, the company was the leading distributor of paper and office products.

In 1996, Alco Standard was dissolved and Unisource became a publicly traded company. Unisource then experienced rapid growth fueled by the acquisition of several top-rated local and regional distribution companies in North America. In 1999, Unisource was acquired by Georgia-Pacific Corp., now owned by Koch Industries. Since 2002, Bain Capital has held a 60 percent ownership of Unisource, and Georgia-Pacific retains 40 percent ownership.
