The Paper Tree

The Paper Tree is a retail-based company owned and operated by Davao Unified Corporation (DUC).  The Paper Tree was established in May of 2004 in response to the market’s need for more accessible and more affordable School and Office Supplies (SOS) stores near schools in Davao City (Philippines).  As of 2008, we are operating 8 stores within Davao City – 7 of them near educational institutions - with The Paper Tree Sta. Ana and Bolton branches as our flagship stores. 

Our DUC Retail Store, which is located in Sta. Ana Avenue corner Alvarez Street (near the Oceanic and Lorenzo Shipping Warehouses) offers personalized, assisted shopping for wholesalers in and out of town.  Wholesalers can leave their shopping lists at DUC Retail Store and come back to pick them up after they are done with their other buying activities.

Our Parent Company

Our parent company, Davao Unified Corporation (DUC), was founded in mid 1997 and has since been a leading supplier of Paper, School and Office Stationery (SOS) for the Mindanao area. Our business involves supplying dealers, printers, government, schools, corporate and institutional clients with quality yet very competitively priced goods and services.  We regularly deliver for free to as far as Cagayan de Oro, Surigao and the Cotabato regions.  We cover most major towns and cities in Mindanao except for the Zamboanga area.  We also serve clients in the Visayas region but with the freight costs handled by the clients.  

Our unrelenting pursuit for constant improvement has led us to grow exponentially over a relatively short period. We believe that the right people and good partnerships with clients and suppliers have helped and will continue to help us drive growth, excellence and value in the many years ahead. 

Our Mission

It is our mission to serve our clients with their required products and services at the soonest possible time and at the best prices available, thereby creating value for the company, its client base, and the community as a whole.  All of this, done with sincerest adherence to the virtues of honesty, integrity, fair play, and the unwavering drive for continuous growth and excellence.
