More than just books

MPH bookstore is setting out to attract more non-book lovers with a wider repertoire of stationery, gift products and lifestyle items.

Having started out as a missionary printing press which was later named Methodist Publishing House in 1906, the company still carries the acronym today.

The business changed several hands before coming under the wing of Tan Sri Syed Mokhtar in 2000 to become a Malaysian-owned company.
