Buying school supplies should be easy.

Why should kids and parents scramble to stores with picked-over merchandise and struggle to find the right items on their school supply list?

In 1979, Dr. Jim Stapleton, principal at Dueitt Middle School, asked that very question. His answer was what was to become EPI. With friends, he started packaging custom supply packs from his home. Word spread about his service and soon the entire district was buying supplies from EPI.
