OfficeMax

OfficeMax was a retail company that sold office supplies and furniture. It was founded in 1988 and grew to become one of the largest office supply retailers in the United States. The company operated over 1,000 stores nationwide and offered a wide variety of products, including paper, pens, ink cartridges, computers, and printers. OfficeMax also provided services such as printing, copying, and shipping. In 2013, OfficeMax merged with Office Depot, another major office supply retailer, to form Office Depot, Inc. The combined company continued to operate under both the Office Depot and OfficeMax brands for a period, but eventually, the OfficeMax brand was phased out in favor of Office Depot. The merger aimed to create a stronger competitor in the office supply market and achieve cost savings through economies of scale. The legacy of OfficeMax is now part of the broader history of Office Depot, which continues to serve customers in the office supply sector.
