A Story Written in Paper
HIPCO was founded in Beirut in 1983 and has grown into a leader in the paper industry. We’ve built our success on trust, quality, and over 40 years of expertise.
It all began in Beirut, 1983 as a small vision that grew into a trusted partner for printers, publishers, packaging, and pharmaceutical businesses across the region. What drives us hasn’t changed: delivering the paper and board that bring every project to life.
Our journey started as HiTaco (Hammoud Inter Trade Company), founded by Mustafa Hammoud. From the beginning, the focus was simple: supporting printing houses and publishers with paper they could count on.
As demand expanded, so did we. Under the name MHCO (Mustafa Hammoud & Co. Paper), the company reached new markets across Lebanon and the Arab region, offering a wider range of paper and cartonboard while building a reputation for consistency.
Â
From a local supplier to an international paper trader, HIPCO extended its reach across the MENA region and Africa, supplying high-quality paper and board to businesses worldwide.
Â
Understanding industry shifts, we broadened our focus beyond traditional paper trading and stepped into packaging materials, offering businesses a wider range of products to meet their growing needs.
The final step in our evolution brought us to HIPCO. With global mill partnerships, a diversified product portfolio, and back-to-back delivery solutions that ship directly from mills to customer ports, we became a trusted partner not only for publishers and printers but also for packaging and pharmaceutical companies.
Today, under the leadership of Ahmad and Mohamad Hammoud, HIPCO supplies over 50,000 tons annually across Lebanon, MENA, and Africa; carrying forward the same spirit of trust and reliability.
