Lyreco’s historic EOPA win: Sustainability Excellence and Reseller of the Year award
Lyreco has been recognised with two major honours at the European Office Products Awards, winning both the Sustainability Excellence Award and Reseller of the Year on 10th of March 2026 in Amsterdam.
Organised by OPI (Office Products International), the awards recognise outstanding achievements across the global workplace-solutions industry. The double recognition is particularly significant as Lyreco celebrates its 100th anniversary in 2026, marking a century of supporting workplaces worldwide.
The Reseller of the Year award recognises Lyreco’s leadership reflected in its continued evolution from a traditional office supplies reseller into a multi-category workplace solutions provider operating in 25 countries and serving additional markets through a global partner network. Lyreco was recognised as a leading voice within the industry, championing progress and positive change while navigating transformation and staying true to its core values.
Alongside this industry leadership, Lyreco was commended for embedding responsible practices at the heart of its business strategy acknowledged by the Sustainability Excellence Award. We continue to advance our sustainability strategy, which has been embedded into the company’s business model for nearly 30 years. Achieving EcoVadis Platinum status, placing us among the top performers globally, is a distinction that is both challenging to attain and maintain. Judges highlighted the consistently high standards, company-wide commitment and measurable impact as a benchmark for excellence in sustainable business practices.
Gregory Lienard, CEO of Lyreco, reflected on winning the award:

These awards reflect the dedication of our teams and partners around the world and reinforce our commitment to delivering great working days as we enter our second century."
The awards also highlight the strong collaboration between Lyreco and its global supplier network, which plays a key role in delivering sustainable and innovative solutions to customers.
