Office DEPOT Named "Official Office Supplier" of USIndoor
(Arlington, VA - December 18, 2006) The United States Indoor Soccer Association ("USIndoor") announced today that Office DEPOT has become the association's "Official Office Supplier." As such, association members will receive savings of 30-80% off the standard list price of thousands of Office Depot items and "Best Value" pricing on a wide range of office essentials, furniture, technology products, promotional items and printing services. Patrons of members, including players, coaches, fans and their families, will also benefit from discounts up to 30-60%.
The world's largest office products distributor, Office Depot, has 1,000+ locations in the US and Canada. In 2005, Office Depot's total annual revenue exceeded $14 billion. USIndoor's membership, representing a growing number that exceeds half of its industry, meanwhile, consists of over 300 recreational facility and "startup" members, 40+ "corporate" members and sponsors and close to 1,000 referee members, among other affiliates. The Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association recently estimated total indoor soccer participation, alone, of about 5 million. Another 25% of USIndoor facility members' offerings generate additional participation, not including spectators and family.
Said USIndoor president Don Shapero, "In Office Depot, USIndoor has hauled a big fish, offering tremendous everyday benefits not just to our members, but to their patrons, as well. As if further justification were needed, this program alone can easily pay for a member's entire annual dues." Brad Shaw, Office Depot Regional Sales Director, agreed, adding "We look forward to a successful partnership with the US Indoor Soccer Association."
