History

Origins of the Group date back to 1869. Amongst its earliest activities Price & Pierce was a major seller of Russian softwood timber and during the 1950’s to 1980’s was one of the shareholders in the Russian Wood Agency in UK.

In 1924 Price & Pierce was listed on London Stock Exchange for 50 years. In 1984 the Group was sold to Sears World Trade of USA and further in 1987 to Ibstock Group in UK.

In 1993 a management team backed by a Far Eastern investor acquired the international pulp, paper and board business. The new entity was incorporated in USA and in 1998 the Finnish public company M-Real Corporation became the owner of the Group.

During the recent years company has expanded rapidly both geographically and in volume and in September 2004 the American leading independently owned merchant and distribution company Gould Paper Corporation acquired the Group.

Today Price & Pierce Group is one of the leading international trading houses for pulp, paper, board and tissue products.
