History

A concise historical narrative of NAICS Code 424120-23 covering global milestones and recent developments within the United States.

  • The history of the Pens & Pencils-Supplies & Parts (Wholesale) industry dates back to the 19th century when the first mass-produced pencils were introduced. In 1858, Hymen Lipman patented the first pencil with an eraser attached to its end, which revolutionized the writing industry. In the early 20th century, fountain pens became popular, and in the 1940s, ballpoint pens were introduced, which became the most popular writing instrument. In the United States, the industry saw significant growth in the 1950s and 1960s, with the introduction of new writing instruments and the expansion of the education sector. In recent years, the industry has seen a shift towards digital writing instruments, but the demand for traditional writing instruments remains strong.
