On the night of September 11, 2026, as a result of a Russian attack, the premises, logistics infrastructure, and stock holdings of 'Import-Office Ukraine' — one of the leading suppliers of stationery, creative supplies, and office accessories in the Ukrainian market — were completely destroyed. According to the company's statement, the fire destroyed products of Ukrainian brands Buromax, Zibi, and Buroclean, as well as goods from global brands Bic, Maped, Fellowes, Uni, and a number of others, for which the company serves as the official distributor. As the founders report, the lost warehouse stocks and logistics capacity were intended to supply Ukrainian offices, production facilities, schools, kindergartens, and families. ### Scale of Losses and the Company's Response The company has been operating in the market since 1994 and, according to its own data, has a portfolio of over 12,000 product items, its own warehouses and vehicle fleet, cooperates with more than 1,500 wholesale clients, and employs over 300 workers. Despite the extensive losses, the company states it will continue operations: the enterprise is accumulating stock in transit and at production facilities, resuming operational processes, and working to stabilize supply. Founders Vadym Zybrov and Oksana Filonova emphasized their intention to rebuild the business, noting: 'It hurts. Neither the mind nor the heart can accept it. What we built together with our team over decades has been destroyed. But we will not give up! We will stand firm! We will recover!' ### Impact on Consumers and Retail Chains Thanks to pre-shipment, some Buromax and Zibi products remain available in retail chains and partner online stores, according to the company. Meanwhile, the official websites buromax.ua and zibi.ua have temporarily suspended operations. For end consumers and wholesale clients, this means possible temporary instability in the assortment of stationery and office accessories, although the company states it is restoring its supply chains. ### Context: A Series of Strikes on Logistics The strike on 'Import-Office Ukraine' fits into a broader context of regular attacks on Ukrainian warehouse and logistics facilities. On the same day, in Dnipro, a warehouse of the VARUS chain was damaged in another enemy attack, which, according to available data, had already been hit by shelling in the spring. It is noted that systematic strikes on food warehouses led to a shortage of products in Kyiv: logistics centers and warehouses of leading retailers, including Novus, ATB, Silpo, and Fora, were damaged. Thus, the attack on the stationery distributor became yet another episode of pressure on the country's economic infrastructure. ### Contradictory Data Key quantitative indicators — over 12,000 product items, more than 1,500 wholesale clients, and a staff of 300+ workers — are cited in the company's own statements and have not been independently verified by third parties as of publication.
