About David Spencer
I am the owner and CEO of Atlantic Paper & Supply, a third generation family-owned business that provides vendor managed inventory (VMI) for packaging, janitorial, and safety products. I have over 37 years of experience in the industry, and I am passionate about helping companies save money and reduce their environmental impact by optimizing their supply chain processes and sourcing green solutions.At Atlantic Paper, we strive to be the easiest company to do business with, and to build long-term customer relationships based on mutual respect, fairness, and transparency. We are the only company that voluntarily passes along lower prices to customers when market costs go down, and we offer a $50 service credit and a signed letter of apology for any mistake we make. We also work with customers to get exactly what they need and stock special or custom items for immediate delivery. As a leader, I value learning, innovation, and integrity, and I empower my team to deliver exceptional service and quality.
