Overview

Maske Gruppen is a Norwegian wholesale and distribution group focused on office supplies and healthcare products. The company is headquartered in Trondheim and serves customers across Norway through a nationwide operating network. Its business combines wholesale distribution with a retail presence under the Maske Marked name. The group has facilities in locations extending from northern to southern Norway, with principal warehouse operations in Trondheim and Vinterbro near Oslo. Maske Gruppen also operates Maske Marked stores in Bergen, Molde, Sandefjord, Stavanger, and Trondheim. The modern group was formed in 2006 through the merger of Julius Maske and S-Gruppen. Although the current group dates from 2006, its corporate and trading heritage reaches back to 1858. The merger brought together established activities in the Norwegian supply market and created a broader distribution platform serving both business and institutional customers. Maske Gruppen's core scope is the distribution of office-related supplies and healthcare products. Its role is primarily that of a wholesaler and supply partner rather than a consumer-goods manufacturer. The combination of central warehouses, regional facilities, and Maske Marked outlets supports delivery and purchasing coverage across the Norwegian market. Public reference material identifies Norway as the group's operating geography and does not establish a substantial international operating footprint. The company is therefore best understood as a nationally oriented Norwegian wholesale group with roots in long-established trading businesses. Its positioning rests on product availability, logistics, and coverage of workplace and healthcare procurement needs. Detailed information on ownership, leadership, financial performance, brand architecture, and individual product lines is not established in the supplied reference material.

History

Maske Gruppen is a Norwegian wholesale group whose present structure was established in 2006. The group was created through the merger of Julius Maske and S-Gruppen, two established businesses connected with the Norwegian supply and distribution market. The combined organization inherited a much longer commercial history: reference material traces the group's heritage to 1858, although the supplied sources do not identify the original founder or provide a continuous account of the intervening corporate changes. The 2006 merger was the principal formation event for the modern Maske Gruppen. It brought the predecessor businesses together under a common group and enabled a broader national distribution operation. The company is based in Trondheim and has developed or maintained facilities in locations from northern to southern Norway. Its main warehouses are identified as being in Trondheim and Vinterbro in the Oslo area, providing central logistics capacity for nationwide distribution. Maske Gruppen's business is centered on wholesale distribution. Its principal categories are office supplies and healthcare products, which place the group within the business-to-business and institutional procurement ecosystem rather than primarily within consumer retail or manufacturing. The organization also operates Maske Marked stores. These outlets are located in Bergen, Molde, Sandefjord, Stavanger, and Trondheim, giving the group a visible retail channel alongside its wholesale activities. The available reference material describes Maske Gruppen as operating throughout Norway. It does not document a significant international expansion program, public listing, acquisition history beyond the 2006 formation merger, named executives, financial results, or later strategic milestones. Accordingly, the documented history is strongest on the group's heritage, merger, logistics footprint, product categories, and retail locations. Further research would be needed to establish its current ownership, legal structure, leadership, detailed product portfolio, and recent corporate developments.
