Fellowes Brands, Inc. is a privately held manufacturer of office equipment based in Itasca, Illinois. The company was founded as the Bankers Box Company to manufacture the company's namesake Bankers Box record storage boxes. Since the 1960s, the company has diversified its portfolio of products, changing its name to Fellowes and becoming a market leader of paper shredders and record storage products in the United States.[1]

After its expansion into business machines such as shredding, laminating, and binding, Fellowes Brands has expanded its brand to include various products, including modular walls, furniture, business machines, commercial air purification, and commercial-grade workspace products.[2]

Fellowes has been owned and operated by members of its namesake family since its foundation in 1917. The company operates 24 regional offices across the world and employs more than 1,000 people.[3]
