The Morawa, an Austrian book trade company, is to guarantee to return to Upper Austria by taking over the Alex bookshop.
“Confession for the preservation of the book trade landscape”
“With this takeover, as the largest Austrian book trade group, we are making another commitment to maintaining the book trade landscape,” says Wolfgang Rick, managing partner of Morawa. This is very important to the family business. The Alex bookstore should not only remain with its name, but with its manageable size of 120 square meters also as a meeting point for literary enthusiasts who value personal advice and a curated range. “The proven quality and the high service claim for which the business has been known for decades are preserved under the roof of Morawa and are further strengthened by the company’s synergies,” promises Morawa Managing Director Klaus Magele.
