Partnerships earn their strength over time. For more than a decade, OCS and OfficeMax have worked together in a relationship built on trust, shared values, and a clear understanding of what great service looks like.
OfficeMax supports our teams with essential products across Aotearoa New Zealand, helping colleagues carry out their work safely and efficiently while ensuring we can service our customers to a high standard. At the same time, our cleaning teams look after OfficeMax workplaces throughout Aotearoa, providing steady, reliable service every day. This two-way relationship reflects a simple idea: long-term success comes from clear expectations and people who take pride in their work.
ESG commitments are also an important part of how we work together. OfficeMax’s focus on ethical sourcing and low-waste solutions aligns closely with our own approach to responsible procurement and social impact. These shared priorities strengthen the practical work our teams do together and support outcomes that reach beyond the workplace.
In this video, OfficeMax Chief Executive Kevin Obern talks about what he sees in the relationship – open communication, reliability, and confidence in how work is delivered.
His perspective provides a useful lens on how organisations can support each other well, whether as a customer or a supplier.
As we continue to work alongside OfficeMax, this relationship demonstrates the value of partnering with organisations that take a consistent, people-first approach and understand the importance of acting responsibly for both people and the environment.
