We started out spreading the joy of reading with just one van, visiting offices scattered around the Guildford area. This is where we found our first band of loyal customers. By 1990, there were 140 local booksellers all around the country sporting bright red Book People shirts and visiting every kind of workplace imaginable… from bakeries to banks, schools to hospitals! With increasing demand for our quality books at unbelievable prices, soon our Book People catalogue was born and customers had another convenient way to shop our extensive range.
