Mondadori Store, the largest network of bookstores in Italy, offers the Foggia bookstore customers an even more attractive and welcoming shopping experience, thanks to a new space that has great historical importance and that complements the current store.

A new room is being added to the already large spaces that the store has, one that was home to a bookstore created in 1881. With this expansion, the Mondadori Bookstore strengthens its position as a cultural stronghold for the area, offering readers a unique experience within its spaces.

The new Mondadori Bookstore covers 60 m² and is located on Via Guglielmo Oberdan, near Foggia’s historic centre and next to the large spaces of the bookstore (200 m²) that have been there since 2012. The grand opening will take place on 9 November at 6 pm.

To preserve the historical importance of the location, the furnishings have been preserved and restored and the display cases will be visible to give passersby the opportunity to have a glimpse into the store.

The offer for the Mondadori Bookstore in Foggia includes a total catalogue of over 10,000 titles, from great classics to best sellers, including fiction, non-fiction, 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, and 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.

“We are excited to start this new adventure”, said Marisa Colucci, Mondadori Store affiliate. “Our cultural initiative will try to focus on young people, and we will soon be offering all kinds of workshops, in addition to hosting school groups from primary and lower secondary schools in the city. We also intend to hold a series of presentations with different authors, in order to strengthen the bond with readers”, finished Colucci.

The Mondadori Bookstore in Foggia 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 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.
