How do Book Fairs Work?

We carry a wide range of books (Fiction, non-fictional and educational) that can be purchased on the fair day. (The duration of the fair can be a half-day, full day or more as agreed with the school.) We also provide posters and flyers for the school to advertise the event to children, parents and staff.

A one day book fair, for example from 09:00 to 16:00 (We do not need a lunch break.) needs about 90 minutes to set up and about the same to clear up at the end of the day.

The fair times can be adjusted to your requirements, including possible half days or until late. We are present during the entire event to sell the books to children, parents and staff. It is desirable to have a planned timetable for individual classes to visit the fair. Parents and staff are welcome at any time throughout the day.

First we need to agree a date(s), the timing and the location. A ground floor room is desirable, with suitable access and near bye parking. Upper or lower levels are also possible if a suitable lift is available. Two or three weeks before the fair, we will ask if you have any special requests, then send posters and flyers to advertise the event.

All books are individually priced in Swiss Francs. Payment in Chf. is preferred, however we will accept notes in other currencies (British Pounds, Euros, or US Dollars).

We cannot accept bank or credit cards, but bank payments forms (Einzahlung Giro / Versement Virement / Versamento Girata) can be provided.
