GRIPS CUSTOMERS & RESEARCH PARTNERS
GBC, part of ACCO Brands (NYSE: ACCO), faced significant headwinds in H1 2026, with in-store performance driven overwhelmingly by Amazon's dominant 75.6% revenue share, followed distantly by Newegg and Office Depot. According to Grips Intelligence data covering January-June 2026, revenue declined 16.4% overall and average prices fell 8.8%, signaling substantial market pressure across channels. The brand's top products command premium pricing—ranging from $80-$2,600 per unit—yet this pricing power failed to offset broader sales contraction. Despite maintaining meaningful retail presence across three major channels, GBC's heavy reliance on a single marketplace and steep quarterly revenue drops suggest competitive or demand-side challenges requiring strategic attention.
