From humble beginnings

Our mission and ethos here at First Degree is the continued supply of great stationery and office products at exceptional prices worldwide. This was no different in 2002 when Andrew Smith founded the company. Using his years’ of retail experience, he created a business that supported the needs of stationery wholesalers no matter where they were located.

When Paul Ravening, our current Managing Director, joined the company, First Degree began to secure more business by taking advantage of his extensive knowledge and international customer base. His drive and commitment to customer satisfaction has seen First Degree go from commercial strength to commercial strength, further solidifying our position in the global market.

Originally based in Greenford, we have recently relocated to a more central location in London, allowing us to better serve our loyal customer base of over 50 clients.
