Jalema was founded 70 years ago; we believe an occasion that is worth celebrating! Jalema proudly looks back on the past and is also looking forward to the years to come. Although the developments in the world of office supplies come by quickly, Jalema meets the future with confidence.

The Jalema history started in 1947

On October 8th, 1947, Jalema was registered at the Chamber of Commerce in the Netherlands. The firm settled in Steyl (NL), where it started as a producer of archive files and systems. In 1952, Jalema moved to the industrial area in Reuver (NL), where it is still located at the Dr. Poelsstraat in 2017. Over the years, Jalema developed and the activities have expanded - Jalema is a real family business, where the third generation is in control now. Among the Jalema-employees, there are a lot of people who have been part of the team for number decades, we see this as a great achievement and they still form an enthusiastic and dedicated team.

An important European player in the world of archive- and office supplies

Jalema faces the future with confidence. Since the beginning of 2016, Jalema has changed course slightly and wants to focus on the European market. Jalema wants to become an important European player in the world of archive- and office supplies. With this course, Jalema recently released its new website. The website has several improvements and it allows both our dealers as our end users to use it.
