Lara Bookstores

We are glad to mention that for over almost forty (40) years, we have provided dependable service by meeting the needs of several institutional and individual customers. We have achieved this by sourcing of materials locally and abroad. In our quest to satisfy the needs of our numerous customers, we have over the years embarked on a phased expansion programme. We now have two (2) branches in Ilorin apart from the head office, and also one (1) in Lokoja, Kogi State. We also have plans to open one branch each in Abuja and Minna in the near future. This is apart from our expanding franchise network targeted at covering all the geopolitical zones of the country. It is our desire to become the most dominant supplier of books and stationery in Nigeria by the year 2010, by which time we plan that our network would have attained the target of five branches and fifteen franchises. To achieve this, we will expand the scope of the collaboration with our present suppliers while aggressively cultivating new ones. It is our desire to raise the frontiers of the book trade in Nigeria, by applying internationally accepted best practices. To this end, in line with the current trend of globalisation, we are exploring collaboration with stakeholders in several countries including Sierra Leone, South Africa, and Ghana.
