ULINE is Uihlein is The Koch Brothers
The cozy little family business the ULINE company owners like to
present themselves as sez:
"Recognizing a local need for a shipping supply distributor, Liz and Dick Uihlein started Uline from their basement in 1980."
A big basement since Dick was an heir to the Joseph Schlitz brewery fortune his grandfather co-founded and another from his father who co-founded Northbrook-based General Binding Corp. who just might have helped supply his company "with the H-101 carton sizer (still offered today). The Uihleins grew the business far beyond their own expectations."

ULINE is YOU-LYING
It was only after systematically
having multiple customer reps at ULINE misrepresent clear
communications and place unrequested charges to a business account that
curiosity about the company was raised. The ruthless efficiency was a symptom of far worse. This is not just a predacious company. These are not good people. They are political monsters and using their products lines the pockets of far right wing America. Uline grosses $2 billion a year. They are
a law unto themselves, dominating huge areas of business supplies.
They are, internally, a penurious monolith masquerading as a
"family" business. Externally,
they donate huge sums to right wing causes. The company and their products should be boycotted. Find other suppliers. Check out
their links on Muckety below. Share this blog with friends, move it up the
google list whose first hits the Uihleins have plastered with encomiums to their Company and themselves.
