UOE Expands with the Acquisition of First Stop Stationers in Reigate

4 Oct 2024


We’re thrilled to announce the latest milestone in UOE’s journey of growth and expansion. UOE has officially acquired First Stop Stationers, a well-established business in the heart of Reigate. With over 30 years of trusted service to the local community, First Stop Stationers is a perfect addition to the UOE family as we continue to expand our footprint across Surrey, London, and the home counties.

Located on Reigate High Street, First Stop Stationers has been a beloved staple (excuse the pun!) for stationery lovers and those seeking excellent customer service. This acquisition not only strengthens our presence in the region but also aligns with our mission to bring high-quality stationery, office supplies, and Post Office services to even more local communities.

Why Reigate?

Reigate is a vibrant town known for its strong sense of community, and First Stop Stationers has been an integral part of that fabric. The opportunity to acquire a business with such a stellar reputation was a natural fit for UOE. We believe in the power of local businesses to create a positive impact, and this acquisition is a testament to our commitment to investing in community-focused businesses.

What Does This Mean for Customers?

The acquisition of First Stop Stationers means that Reigate customers can look forward to an expanded product range, continued exceptional service, and an expanding range of services and facilities under the UOE umbrella. Our customers will now benefit from a wider array of stationery, office supplies, packaging, and postal services while continuing to experience the same welcoming environment they’ve come to know and trust.
We’re also planning to introduce exciting new products and services in the coming months, so stay tuned for updates. From everyday office essentials to unique, premium stationery items, UOE is here to meet your needs. Plus, our dedication to friendly, personalised service remains as strong as ever!

Welcoming the Reigate Team

We’d like to take a moment to welcome the fantastic team from First Stop Stationers to the UOE family. All of the staff have been retained as part of our acquisition and their local knowledge and passion for customer service will continue to be the heart of the store, and we’re excited to support them as we grow together. We wish Sunil and Sangita Pallana, former owners, the very best in their retirement.

Looking Ahead

This acquisition marks a significant step forward for UOE as we continue to expand our reach. We’re committed to providing even more communities with top-tier stationery products and services, and Reigate is expected to be the first of a series of new location announcements we’re planning over the coming months with new locations planned across Surrey, London and Bedfordshire.
