On 1 February, Mondadori Store, the most extensive network of bookstores in Italy, will open a new shop in Via Marghera in Milan. This is one of the most dynamic and lively shopping areas in the capital of Lombardy, and it will now have a new reference point for everyone interested in culture, reading and entertainment.

‘We are happy to announce the opening of the new bookstore under direct management in Via Marghera in Milan, which confirms the Mondadori Group’s commitment to spreading culture and promoting entertainment and reading. This opening is part of a broader strategy of continuous renewal, enhancement and development of our network of bookshops in Italy, which are increasingly attractive in their role as cultural strongholds,’ says Carmine Perna, Managing Director of Mondadori Retail.

Located in a strategic position inside Quasar Village, the bookstore — with an area of 250 m² — offers modern, innovative spaces with a layout and furnishings that enhance and emphasise the vast product range of Mondadori Store: a catalogue of more than 13,000 titles — from best sellers to the great classics, including fiction, non-fiction and miscellaneous topics — e-readers, stationery products, gift boxes and gift cards. A team of five passionate booksellers is ready to support and guide readers in their choice of books. The new Mondadori Bookstore in Corciano has a We are Junior area specifically designed for young readers. In this section, even the youngest readers can find a rich selection of books, illustrated fairy tales and educational games. The bookstore also houses a wide selection of comics and manga in the dedicated Just Comics department, with superhero comics and graphic novels.

The new store also offers a number of activities to engage readers right from the start.
On Friday 2 February at 5:30 p.m., Francesco Taverna will be at the store signing copies of his book Io sono Chico, the most famous dog on the web and a real social phenomenon that has also become a publishing success among teenagers. On Saturday 3 February at 4 p.m. and Sunday 4 February at 11 a.m. and 4 p.m., the bookstore will host a number of workshops for children ages 3–5 and 6–9, in cooperation with Leo Scienza, an association that has been working on scientific, environmental and cultural publishing for young readers since 2005. The science-themed programme promises to be packed with activities and experiments to engage and entertain little ones while they learn.

The Mondadori Bookstore in Turin also serves readers online. Customers can contact the store, follow initiatives and events on its Facebook and Instagram pages and use the digital services at Mondadoristore.it to check the availability of books from the catalogue of more than 1 million titles, order them and pick them up in store.

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. This 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.
