known for being the #1 bookseller of educational texts, for almost 15 years KB has made an indelible mark in the Jamaican, and regional book industry by offering a diversity of general “edu-tainment” material – from international best sellers to board games, electronics and children’s tables and chairs.

Breaking the barriers of being a “traditional bookstore”, KB has made strides in satisfying its customers’ needs by creating delightful Reading Corners, where children can come and read, and participate in regular reading sessions. In addition, through KB’s cyber centers located in five retail stores, customers have access to the wider world through the internet and diverse printing services.

In keeping with our goal of being a good corporate citizen, KB has provided numerous scholarships, library sponsorships, established a Homework Center among other initiatives. By enriching the lives of the communities we serve we hope to ultimately contribute to Jamaica’s national development.

At KB, we are committed to giving our customers great value. We will continually seek to provide creative and innovative products to our customers while offering exceptional customer service.
