We also have a very extensive area on our second floor which deals with Asian history and culture and we are increasing the amount of books we stock in. For instance, Chinese, because we're finding that we're getting an increasing amount of requests from customers for those kinds of books. We also have rooms with second-hand and antiquarian books. We stock sheet music, which a lot of bookshops wouldn't consider stocking. So there's something for everyone there really. We've got a very big children's department with a tank with piranha fish in it.
I think it is partly those things. The size of the shop and the range that we have available. I think, also, we've been here for more than a hundred years, so it's got a strong brand I think and it's considered very traditional-it is a destination for tourists. So we're trying to make Foyles, as well as having a big range. Trying to make it as interesting a place to shop, so you can have a cup of coffee, you can buy antique books as gifts, you can pick up gifts and stationary. So things other than books. |
