Sales in third quarter 2000 increased 7% to more than $1.9 billion, compared with $1.8 billion in the third quarter a year ago. The sales increase was due primarily to growth in office products and building materials distribution and higher paper prices. Sales in second quarter 2000 were also $1.9 billion.
