Founded in 1987, Patabah Books Limited was born from a simple yet powerful vision: to make quality books and learning materials accessible to every Nigerian who loves to read, learn, and grow.
What started as a modest bookshop has flourished into a beloved community institution. Over more than 35 years, we've witnessed the transformation of countless lives through the power of books and education.
Today, we proudly serve as a one-stop destination for books, stationery, gift items, and greeting cards. Our shelves hold everything from children's picture books to academic textbooks, from premium writing instruments to thoughtful gifts that celebrate life's special moments.
