The German retail and online business is being rebranded to OfficeCentre, who purchased the business in September 2019.
New Office Centre GmbH, a member of the office supplies and equipment company, New Office Centre Beheer B.V. Group bought the German arm of Staples in September 2019. Effective 1 April, the online presence of staples.de has been moved to www.officecentre.de and the announcement on its website says that in the coming weeks retail locations will get a facelift too.
Office Centre explained: “We have been called OfficeCentre since April 2021, because we no longer belong to the Staples Group since September 2019, but have become an owner-managed company that has been successful and known in the Netherlands under the name OfficeCentre for more than 30 years.
