About us
The Creative & Procurement Platform
Supplying Creators. Powering Organizations.
Creativity inspires ideas. Procurement turns ideas into reality. At Catskill Brands, we’ve built a platform that brings both together.
Supply. Create. Deliver.
Our story
Every great company starts with a purpose
Ours began in 1978, when Catskill Art and Catskill Office were founded with a simple mission: deliver exceptional products, provide knowledgeable service, and build lasting customer relationships.
For decades, artists relied on us for quality creative supplies. Businesses trusted us for dependable workplace products. Educators counted on us to support their classrooms. Those relationships became the foundation of everything we do today.
As our customers evolved, their needs expanded beyond individual product categories. Businesses needed commercial printing. Artists wanted museum-quality framing. Schools required classroom art kits and institutional purchasing programs.
Instead of trying to become one company that did everything, we built specialized companies that each became experts in their industries. Those companies now work together as one connected platform known as Catskill Brands.
One relationship. Multiple specialists. Unlimited possibilities.
Why Catskill Brands exists
Our customers move between worlds
Most suppliers focus on a single market. Some serve consumers. Others focus exclusively on businesses. Some specialize in education. Others work only with government agencies.
But a teacher is also an artist. A small business owner may also need promotional products, office supplies, and custom framing. A university purchases classroom materials, commercial printing, workplace products, and creative supplies.
Rather than forcing customers to manage multiple vendors, Catskill Brands brings specialized expertise together under one trusted organization.
