JCC Association’s preferred vendor program is always seeking to provide the best possible cost savings and benefits to your JCC. Therefore, we are proud to announce that we have selected Staples Business Advantage, the contract and commercial division of Staples, Inc. to replace Office Depot as the sole preferred vendor provider of office supplies and equipment to JCCs.

Why did we choose Staples Business Advantage?
In addition to their aggressive price offerings, account management, reporting and award-winning on-line site, Staples is willing to pay all participating JCC’s 5% of total sales, from dollar one, for spending over $12,000. Staples will pay this “incentive” twice a year, directly to all participating JCCs that meet the minimum requirements. You can apply this money however you choose. This very favorable agreement has been developed by Staples specifically to benefit JCCs!

By utilizing Staples, your JCC will achieve significant cost savings through an optimum mix of product, price and value-added services. Additionally, the Staples team will be implementing a new process that will streamline and facilitate the ordering of office supplies through the use of Stapleslink.com.

The Staples Business Advantage Program features the following:

- Easy ordering via toll free numbers by fax, telephone, Stapleslink.com, their custom on-line website
- Free next day delivery. ( No orders will be accepted under $20)
- No-Questions Asked Hassle-Free Return Policy

Staples Business Advantage will supply and service all locations in the United States, including all your subsidiaries. This agreement goes into effect October 20, 2004. (An update for the Canadian version of the program will be sent out shortly as a separate notice. )
