Bob Willmes - Founder and CEO
The advent of MPS requires independent servicing dealers to
ship a wide variety of supplies on a moment's notice. The
Supplies Wholesalers online and print catalogs provide easy to
locate and understandable information. This includes
cross-reference numbers of OEM makes and models, type of
product offered (drum, toner, PM kit, etc.), the OEM part
number, the Supplies Wholesalers part number, the suggested
retail price and the wholesale cost offered to their
resellers. The 64 page catalog lists more than 2000 items
ready for same day shipping.
The entire Supplies Wholesalers management team has an
extensive history of dealing with compatibles. Founder and CEO
Robert V. Willmes has a three decade history of fulfilling the
resellers' needs. At age 19, Bob founded Western Computer
Products, a computer supplies and accessories wholesaler.
After selling it to Azerty in 1988, Bob moved to Reno, Nevada
and founded Horizon USA Data Supplies in 1990, which offered
OEM and compatible imaging supplies. In less than five years
Horizon grew to over $40,000,000 in profitable annual sales at
the time Bob Willmes negotiated its sales to SP Richards.
Bob kept his
management team together and started Best Computer Supplies in
1995 focusing on the K-12 educational computer supplies and
accessories market. After successfully mastering the
educational market, BCS was sold in 2000. Next came the
conception of Printer Essentials. Bob and his loyal team of
co-workers had a strong foundation of product knowledge,
import sourcing, logistics, wholesaling and distribution.
Within 5 years, under Bob's vision and guidance, Printer
Essentials grew to become the largest importer of compatible
laser toner cartridges in the USA. In 2005, Bob decided it was
time to retire to Hawaii, so he sold Printer Essentials to a
large private equity group.
By 2009, Bob began to miss Reno, with its open spaces, and
day-to-day interaction with the business world. He began
importing laptop batteries and chargers and launched 2
websites: BatteryEdge.com and BatteriesOvernight.com. In March
2010, coinciding with the end of his non-compete agreement,
Bob Willmes and many of his former employees expanded their
Web presence by launching Supplies Wholesalers, specializing
in compatible and remanufactured printer cartridges that are
quality manufactured in ISO 9001, ISO 14001 certified and STMC
compliant factories in Asia and the United States. To
consistently maintain high quality levels only the finest raw
materials are used, consistent image quality and yield are
monitored and their manufacturing processes are continually
refined.

Supplies Wholesalers quickly expanded their offerings to
include over 2,000 of the most popular imaging supplies. These
include laser toner cartridges, Phaser ink sticks, Inkjet
cartridges, postal equipment ink, fax cartridges, POS ribbons,
maintenance kits, fusers, copier toner, laptop batteries and
chargers. Bob explains Supplies Wholesalers' meteoric rise to
industry prominence.
"Having a 25 year history of highly regarded experience in the
compatible and remanufacturing imaging supplies business, the
ramp up was quickly accomplished. All the back office
infrastructure was already in place. We were already importing
our laptop batteries and chargers from Shenzhen, China. Our
logistics and distribution system was running smoothly with
containers arriving at our Sparks, Nevada warehouse on a
regular basis. Our trusted relationships with the highest
rated, dependable USA and Asian manufacturers were quickly
re-established.
"Our shipping
contracts with FedEx were in place enabling us to offer free
FedEx ground shipping on orders over $250 along with extra low
cost on 2nd day and overnight shipments. At Supplies
Wholesalers you can count on the highest quality products at
competitive pricing, affordable or free freight and the best
customer service in the business. Fortunately, our
long-standing solid reputation among resellers of compatible
products created an immediate customer base for selling our
office equipment supplies."
Bob Willmes continues, "Our re-entry into the wholesaling of
compatible supplies for the printer, fax and copier market was
timed perfectly to help fulfill the increasing need for
non-OEM products to the Managed Print Service's market. It is
essential for dealers venturing into MPS to partner with a
trusted, experienced and knowledgeable compatibles supplier.
Supplies Wholesalers is the perfect choice for one-stop
shopping for all your office equipment supplies."
"Supplies Wholesalers' #1 goal is for the reseller, (or
through free blind drop shipping to their customers) to
receive the correct quality-proven products on-time,
every-time." Bob Willmes continues, "Our daily complete order
fill rate exceeds 95% and the Supplies Wholesalers order
accuracy rate exceeds 99.7%. Part of the Supplies Wholesalers'
business plan is to expect and reward superior customer
service. Our warehouse staff of 10 pickers and packers receive
a monthly bonus incentive for high accuracy rates. We can
reduce overhead and provide superior on-time delivery when the
correct product is quickly and efficiently shipped the first
time. Supplies Wholesalers provides a quality product, with
page yield rates that are equal to or exceeds the OEM, at a
value added price."
