CELBRATING 45 YEARS OF BUSINESS
Our story
Founded in 1981 by Long Beach native and former Long Beach State rowing team member Gary “Papa” Albright, ADS Paper is a family-owned business built on integrity, reliability, and personalized service. The nickname “Papa” is more than a term of endearment—it’s a nod to the nautical Papa Flag featured in our logo, a maritime signal meaning “All hands on deck.” It’s a call to readiness, teamwork, and shared responsibility—the same mindset that has guided our company from day one.
Located just two miles from the Port of Long Beach, ADS Paper operates with a steady hand and a clear moral compass, serving everyone from small businesses to nationally recognized brands. We offer no-charge warehousing for our corrugated boxes, paper packaging, and shipping materials, along with just-in-time delivery designed to keep your operations moving smoothly.
When it’s time to prepare for what’s next, our crew is always ready—all hands on deck.
