Powell Office Style, which employs 18, held an open day on July 24celebrating the anniversary and its recent success.
Customers, suppliers, business partners and friends were invited to the firm's premises at Phoenix Park, Station Road. The event also enabled suppliers to showcase their latest products.
More than 20 loyal customers who have been with Powell's throughout their three decades in business were able to attend on the day. Managing director Sophia Powell said: "It was a fabulous day and a perfect opportunity for our customers to meet the amazing team here at Powell's. We employ local people who have all contributed to the continued success of the business."
As a leading Black Country supplier the business has supplied more than £3 million of furniture to fit out local NHS offices, schools and colleges as well as many leading local firms.
"This year alone, they have sold enough paper to cover the West Bromwich Albion, Wolverhampton Wanderers, Walsall, Aston Villa and Birmingham City football pitches combined and sufficient desks to build a wall around Dudley," said Mrs Powell.
She said that the business was going from strength to strength. "We supply stationery business to business and also offer a turn-key solution for furniture supply to offices, schools, colleges and universities.
"From work flow analysis to interior design and from product specification to installation we can offer a solution for every area within a client's premises," she added.
