Mondadori Store, the largest network of bookstores in Italy, makes a new stronghold dedicated to the world of books, culture and entertainment available to the public in Piombino. Tomorrow, at 4 PM, a new bookstore will open in the Corso Italia pedestrian area, just near the city’s historic centre.

“I’m happy to bring this project to life with the Mondadori Store network of bookstores because we share the same goals: to develop places dedicated to culture, making it accessible to everyone and satisfying the tastes of an increasingly diverse audience”, said Giancarlo Giuliani, Mondadori Store affiliate. Piombino is the right city because it attracts so many tourists with its charming historic centre and breathtaking scenery overlooking the island of Elba and the Tuscan archipelago. I want to thank Mondadori Store for its support that has allowed me to return to Piombino with a bookstore, offering the city a new cultural organisation that will serve as a meeting point for readers of all ages, encouraging social interaction and reading”, finished the affiliate who, along with the Giuliani Group, manages another 17 Mondadori Bookstore throughout Italy.

The new Mondadori Bookstore has a floor area of 90 m² and a catalogue of more than 10,000 titles, from the great classics to best sellers, including fiction, nonfiction and various other works. Special attention has been given to younger readers with the We are Junior format, which includes educational games and picture books to stimulate their imagination with the most intriguing stories, along with a department dedicated to manga and comics, Just Comics. Areas dedicated to #BookTok, for the new generation of readers, as well as stationery, toys and gift cards, also expand the bookstore’s offer.

The Mondadori Bookstore in Piombino also serves readers online: customers can keep up to date through the Instagram and Facebook pages. They will also be able to get in touch with the store through the Mondadoristore.it digital services to check if a book is available, order it and pick it up in store or have it shipped, choosing from a catalogue of over 1 million titles. The bookstore will also offer customers the opportunity to place orders via telephone.

The new Mondadori Bookstore follows the plan for renewal and development of Mondadori Store, the largest bookstore network in Italy, with more than 500 stores in cities and smaller towns. The cultural organisation is active throughout the country, online with the e-commerce site Mondadoristore.it and the book club. In addition to books, its primary service, it also provides entertainment, events and multichannel services, reaching more than 20 million customers every year.
