From One London Bookshop to a National Bookseller
Tim Waterstone founded the company in 1982, opening its first bookshop in London. The business grew by developing larger bookshops with broad selections and knowledgeable booksellers.
Waterstones has since expanded across the UK and Ireland, combining its physical bookshops with an online store offering books, gifts and related products.
