87 Years of Paper Go a Long Way
The Millcraft Paper Company was founded in
Cleveland,
Ohio in 1920 by Pauline and Harold Keil. Together, the Keils built Millcraft’s reliable industry reputation upon a business philosophy in which the customer relationship is paramount. Now in its fourth generation as a family-owned company, Millcraft continues to carry over the traditional family values of honesty, respect and loyalty to its business relationships with customers and suppliers alike.
Between 1928 and 1978, Millcraft solidified its market presence in
Ohio, establishing branches in
Toledo and
Akron,
Ohio and expanded eastward to
Erie,
Pennsylvania. Nearly 75% of Millcraft’s growth, though, has occurred in the last 20 years –a direct result of strategic acquisitions, expanded product lines and increased customer service. In turn, Millcraft's consistent growth in sales and purchasing power has spurred investment into our sales staff, physical plant and leading edge technology to enhance its new product and service capabilities.
