PBS Deutschland, founded in January 2005, combines the market
strength of four leading former independent wholesalers: ALKA,
K&B, H+M, and R&S. PBS Deutschland is able to serve the whole
office- and stationery-market providing marketing-, product- and ITservices.
PBS Deutschland is owned by the PBS-Holding (majority) and
the Taffel family.

Alka, in Hannover, is specialised in high-end marketing and logisticservices
for office-dealers. It offers a product-range of 15.000 SKU´s, a
wide range of marketing-services, paper- and e-catalogues and fully
integrated e-commerce-solutions.

Out of two warehouses, in Berlin and in Munich, these three marketleading
wholesalers are covering the whole German market for
stationery-, school- and trendy-products for shop-dealers. Over 30.000
SKU‘s, 50 sales-representatives and more than 5.000 customers,
proves the market-strength of the organisation. More than 1.000
dealers are permanently linked electronically through a modular built
ordering and ERP-system, called “Paperware”, developed by K&B in
the early nineties. Together with PBS-Austria, the marketing-focus is
on the further development of the franchise-retail chain “Skribo”
and on the continuous upgrading of the common retailer-ERP-system
“Paperware-CIPS”.
