Located in Clicy-La-Garenne, France, Alba was founded in 1958 by two brothers and a cousin. Originally known as Albert & Co. (named after one of the founders), they quickly gained a foothold in the office supply industry thanks to their innovative approach to every day products like paper clips and stationary.
In the early 1980's, the company changed it name to Alba and created the Alba brand of products. These days, the company is focused on creating user friendly office supply products that combine a modern flair with ergonomic designs.
