John R. Green Company

In 1950 John R. Green, Sr. launched a school and office supply business out of a small loft warehouse in northern Kentucky. Founded upon outstanding quality of product and service, John Green established a sterling reputation in the school supplier industry. Today, his son Jack and grandsons Michael and Tom carry on that same dedication to offer educators, teachers, tutors, and parents the best products at competitive prices.  We take great pride in helping you select products that will enhance the learning process and enable you to teach more effectively. We work hard to ship and process your purchases in a timely manner in order to eliminate any unnecessary hassle surrounding a job that already has so many more important demands.
