What Is Waterstones?

In 1982, Tim Waterstone conceived of the idea that would become Waterstones. In the decades that followed, they expanded into a cultural institution in Britain, eventually hiring over 3000 excellent booksellers across more than 280 locations. They are delighted to be the last remaining national bookshop chain, and to have fought off the perceived threat of e-readers and online competition to launch an aggressive growth plan under the leadership of Managing Director James Daunt. New businesses have opened up across the nation, and existing ones have relocated or been remodelled in recent years. Their goals remain lofty, which is why they’ve recently expanded into more prestigious sites like Reigate and Clifton, and relocated their Edinburgh and Manchester stores to the Trafford Centre.

Unlike at many other national chains, they give their store managers a lot of leeway to tailor their operations to the needs of their local communities with only minimal oversight from corporate. They get great satisfaction from promoting books that are simply excellent (but are often overlooked), a practise that was most notably established by their success in making John Williams’ Stoner a bestseller forty years after its initial publication.

Waterstones.com, which works in tandem with their physical bookstores, aims to deliver the Waterstones experience to every home and smartphone in the United Kingdom. Waterstones.com, an online extension of their brick-and-mortar bookshops, is a tremendous success thanks to initiatives like their weekly reading update Waterstones Weekly and their  expanding selection of exclusive reader offers and signed editions. Their growth has coincided with the expansion of Click & Collect, the service that bridges the gap between the two and gives customers the best of both worlds.
Welcome to Waterstones, where you’ll find coffee brewed in-house, a wide selection of books, unique presents, and staff members who are enthusiastic about their work.
