Company Overview

BUILDING A LEGENDARY COMPANY BY DELIVERING ON OUR COMMITMENTS

History

Founded in 1954 in West Reading, PA, Edwards Business Systems is in its third generation of family leadership. Edwards Business Systems has grown from a mom and pop shop selling and servicing typewriters and adding machines into one of the largest independent office equipment companies in North America. With the acquisition of Virginia Copiers in 1993 – now Virginia Business Systems – the company successfully consolidated and strengthened its Mid-Atlantic focus and identity. Recent acquisitions of The Tamblyn Co. in Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, PA, and Image Tec of Roanoke, VA, bring the total number of locations to 12–one of which is the original location opened by Joseph and Alberta Edwards in 1954. With EBS offices serving the Lehigh Valley, West Reading, Pottstown, Harrisburg, Lancaster, York, Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, the Pocono Region and Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, and VBS serving Richmond, Charlottesville, Lynchburg, Roanoke, New River Valley, Shenandoah Valley and Hampton Roads, Virginia, the company provides service and support to a diverse roster of small, medium, and large-sized businesses throughout Eastern Pennsylvania and Central Virginia.

Edwards Business Systems has been in business for over 65 years, making it one of the oldest independent dealers in the country. “Growing with our clients for over 65 years” is more than a slogan, it’s a commitment. Additionally, EBS is consistently named an “Elite Dealer,” a prestigious designation awarded to top dealers as recognized by ENX magazine.
