Some twenty years ago on July 28, 1991, EPP Books Services started its operations as a small bookshop in an obscure corner of Accra, Ghana. The bookshop, which started with a space of not more than 20 meters square, has grown into a chain of bookshops spreading across the West African sub region. EPP Books Services currently has bookshops in Ghana, Benin, Nigeria and Sierra Leone. There are plans
to open more bookshops in Cote d’voire, Burkina Faso, Liberia and Zimbabwe. Our present chain of fifteen bookshops and agencies in Ghana makes us the largest book distributors in Ghana with several more line up for the next couple of years. Our stock of books range from general children’s school books to secondary and university education textbooks, self-help titles to books on development, children’s readers to bestselling novels and a lot more. We do both retailing and wholesaling. One of our specialization is local licensing of otherwise expensive books for the West African sub region and sometimes Africa as a whole. We have had licensing agreements with the following reputable publishers:
• World Bank Publications United States of America
• Blackwell Publishers United Kingdom
• Cengage Learning United Kingdom
• Letts Education United Kingdom
• Arnold Untied Kingdom
• Francis Lincoln United Kingdom
• Blake Publishing Australia
• Scholastic United States of America
• Butterworth-Heinemann United Kingdom
• Continuum United Kingdom
We are booksellers with a distinct character. We also have our own publications. Several of our titles for Primary Schools, Junior High Schools and Senior High Schools have been adopted by the Ministry of Education and currently used as school textbooks in Ghanaian schools.
