Ms. Chau To
CEO of CP Paper Corporation

Welcome to the PaperOne™ customer feature, where we interview our customers to find out more about them, their company, their thoughts about the industry, and their partnership with APRIL Group.

For this month’s customer spotlight, we have Ms. Chau To, CEO of CP Paper Corporation. Based in Vietnam, CP Paper is an industry leader in the printing, writing and packaging business.

PaperOne™: Hi Ms. Chau To, great to have you with us. To begin our interview, do tell us a little more about CP Paper Corporation and your role in it.

Ms. Chau To: Hi there! Thank you so much for having me. As the CEO of CP Paper Corporation, I oversee the vision, business strategy and growth opportunities for the company. I’m also delighted to share that we are the largest merchant in the market with a 26% share in the sectors of writing, printing and publishing!

PaperOne™: Wow, that’s impressive! Given your success, what would you say is the distinguishing factor between your company and its competitors?

Ms. Chau To: I think it’s the additional value that we bring to our customers. Beyond offering high quality products at competitive prices, we also provide them with market insights and tailored solutions for their individual business needs.

PaperOne™: Yes we fully agree, knowing the market and what your customers need is so important! Moving on to the next question, we’ve heard that the manufacturing operations within your company rely largely on renewable energy. Could you tell us more?

Ms. Chau To: Yes! It’s our vision to promote a clean and green environment for a better and healthier community. As such, we have been harnessing solar energy for our manufacturing operations! We also make use of skylights to minimize the overall use of electrical energy.

PaperOne™: That’s amazing. Sustainability is at the heart of our business here at APRIL Group too. We’re glad to have that in common with CP Paper! Speaking of which, we’d love it if you could share with our readers about your relationship with us, as well as introduce them to the PaperOne™ products that you use!

Ms. Chau To: *Laughs* Wow, we go way back don’t we! We’ve partnered with APRIL Group for over a decade. Like you mentioned, we are aligned in terms of business goals so that certainly helped maintain a strong relationship. For products, we use the PaperOne™ Offset and Script range along with our exclusive brands — Not only because of their high quality, but we love that they’re extremely versatile

PaperOne™: We appreciate your support and look forward to partnering with you for many years to come! So tell us, where do you see CP Paper in the next 5 years?

Ms. Chau To: We are definitely looking to diversify our product range in order to cater to different segments of the market – that remains our key focus as of now. We used to be 100% focused on printing and writing but have gradually expanded into the packaging segment in the last few years! Also, we would like to continue investing in eco-friendly paper and develop green packaging solutions to keep up the market and consumer trends.

PaperOne™: Ms. Chau To, it has been an absolute pleasure speaking with you. Thank you very much for your time. Before we go, here’s a final question and it’s a fun one. Tell us one interesting fact that we may not know about CP Paper Corporation!

Ms. Chau To: Haha, this one is easy. Well... All our staff members in the office are female!
