A Legacy of Success Built on Retail Innovation
OUR JOURNEY AND CALLING
North Country Business Products (NCBP) has humble roots dating back to 1948, when we started as a single storefront selling basic office equipment and supplies in Bemidji, MN. Since then, we’ve transformed and grown into a nationwide retail technology solutions provider dedicated to meeting the evolving needs of our customers.
As a trusted partner and advisor in retail technology, we put our customer’s goals and interests first, and we take a best-in-class and people-oriented approach to ensure we deliver targeted, reliable and cutting-edge solutions. We do it all with expert system design, integration, implementation, project management, and support services that help guarantee your success.
While the products and services we deliver have evolved, our commitment to excellence and to our customers has remained constant and unwavering. As a 100% employee-owned company, we have an individual stake in our company’s success, and we know that achieving that begins with ensuring our customers’ success—with the highest level of product quality, services and support.

Pledged to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

North Country Business Products is a proud member of CEO Action, a community of nearly 2,000 business leaders committed to diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). CEO Action was founded on the shared belief that DEI is a societal issue and that collaboration and bold action from the business community and especially CEOs is vital to driving change at scale.
Our CEO, Jim Freed, has joined nearly 2,000 CEOs in taking the CEO Action pledge to drive measurable action and meaningful change in creating a more diverse, inclusive and equitable workforce.
Recognizing our responsibility and the opportunity before us, Jim has signed the pledge to:
• Cultivate environments that support open dialogue on complex and often difficult conversations around diversity, equity and inclusion
• Implement and expand unconscious bias education and training
• Share best-known and successful diversity, equity and inclusion programs and initiatives
• Engage boards of directors when developing and evaluating diversity, equity, and inclusion strategies
CEOs that sign the pledge recognize that it is just the first of many important steps toward enacting real, lasting change. That is why the CEO Action coalition provides access to a variety of tools, resources, events, thought leadership opportunities, and shared success stories to drive progress and advance diversity, equity and inclusion in the workplace.
