Since 1971
Lion Stationery Co Lion Stationery was setup in May 1971. Operations began from a rented half shop-space at Cross Street. Stationery was bought from importers and subsequently sold to retailers and to a small Indonesian clientele. Turnover was limited. In line with the calling to strive for excellence, the company established itself through rapid growth. In 1972, the company became dis
tribution for Japanese brands and business expanded to major cities in East, West Malaysia and Indonesia.
1973 - 1977
Between 1973 and 1977, business activities in Indonesia made giant strides resulting in the non-availablility of space. Consequently the company leased additional premises at a nearby warehouse and also recruited more staff. Since 1985
With the volume of business increasing steadily, the company in 1985 and 1987 invested $3,500,000 to purchase two three-storey units for both administrative and storage purposes. The greatly enhanced godown space and the recruitment of better qualified personnel gave rise to unrestrained organisational enlargement in the ten years that followed. Today
Distribution rights were acquired over well-known brands from Japan, China and Taiwan. Commercial inroads were made progressively into Indonesia, Brunei, Thailand, Philippines, Vietnam, Myanmar, India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, China, Maldives, Papua New Guinea and several other countries. Lion Stationery Co Pte Ltd is now in good general standing and business has been well-regionalised. Such achievements were attained only with the presence of the management and the staff.
