What is the name of the paper company founded by Michael Scott?

The paper company founded by Michael Scott is the Michael Scott Paper Company.

Michael launches the business after resigning from Dunder Mifflin in Season 5. He initially struggles to recruit employees, but Pam Beesly eventually joins him, followed by Ryan Howard. The trio operates from a small office and competes directly with Dunder Mifflin by offering lower prices and personal service.

The company quickly attracts several of Dunder Mifflin Scranton’s major clients, including Blue Cross of Pennsylvania. Its low-price strategy creates cash-flow problems, however, and Michael later admits that the company is close to bankruptcy. Dunder Mifflin ultimately buys the company, bringing Michael, Pam, and Ryan back into the organization.

A common mix-up is confusing it with Dunder Mifflin, Sabre, or Dunder Mifflin Infinity. Those are separate companies or projects in the series; the Michael Scott Paper Company is specifically Michael’s short-lived independent venture.
